How to Make Barber Pole Franks

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a small bowl, melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of butter.
  3. Split hot dogs lengthwise, almost all the way through (leave about 1/4 inch uncut at the bottom to hold them together).
  4. Spread melted butter evenly inside the split hot dogs.
  5. Prepare your favorite biscuit dough recipe (or use 1 can of refrigerated biscuit dough) according to package directions.
  6. Roll out the biscuit dough on a lightly floured surface into an 8-inch square, about 1/4-inch thick.
  7. Cut the dough into 8 equal strips.
  8. Wrap one strip of dough around each hot dog, spiraling from one end to the other.
  9. Place the wrapped hot dogs on a greased baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the hot dogs are heated through.
