Ingredients
- 8 hot dogs
- 8 pastelillo disks
- 8 cheese slices
- 2 cups oil
Instructions
- Cook your hot dogs in the microwave for 1 minute. Take disk and place a slice of cheese and a hot dog.
- Roll your dough to make a cylinder tucking everything in. When you get to the end, wet the edges of the dough so it can stick and close better.
- Press the ends together with your fingers and then seal them by pressing both sides with a fork. In the middle seam gently press the fork down to try to seal it more. Repeat this process until you finished all the cheesedogs.
- In a large pan add your oil over medium-high heat. Once your oil is hot cook the cheesedogs for 4 minutes or 2 on each side. Enjoy!
Notes
- Substitutions- You can use the hot dog brand that you prefer and the same goes for the cheese. I sometimes like to use cheese spread or cheese sauce instead of slices.
- Variations- You can make my favorite variation by adding ground beef. Another good addition is bacon!
