Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9-inch square or 11×7-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Pour heated chili into the dish and spread evenly.
- Unroll pizza dough and cut into 4 strips.
- Cut each cheese stick in half lengthwise. Place one half of a cheese stick on each side of a hot dog.
- Wrap a pizza dough strip around the hot dog and cheese, overlapping slightly in the center. Repeat for remaining hot dogs, cheese, and dough strips. Place wrapped hot dogs on top of the hot chili.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until dough is light golden brown.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a small microwave-safe cup. Stir in garlic powder and parsley.
- Remove baking dish from oven and brush the butter mixture over the top of each cheese dog. Serve immediately.
