What is a Chili Cheese Dog Casserole?
A chili cheese dog bake combines all the things that are loved about a chili cheese dog. Except in this recipe, the ingredients are cut, mixed together, and oven-baked. The result is a dish that has all the flavors of a chili cheese dog, but this casserole is cheesier, gooier, and easier to make than any regular chili cheese dog.
Ingredients & Variations
BISCUIT DOUGH Use a can of biscuit dough, like Pillsbury, for this recipe. Remember to cut each biscuit into pieces.
CHILI Try a homemade chili like this Slow Cooker Chili or use a favorite canned chili.
HOT DOGS Any hot dogs will do. Once covered and cooked with cheese, biscuit dough, and some chili, they will all taste the same – tasty and delicious!
How To Make a Chili Cheese Dog Bake

- Cut the hot dogs and the biscuit dough into bite-sized pieces.

Tips to Store Leftovers
This casserole will keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days, and in the freezer for 1 to 2 months. Just use an airtight container and leave room for expansion. Or, store it in snap lock single portion containers for an easy portable lunch.
To reheat the hot dog casserole, use the microwave for single portions, or try sprinkling a little extra cheese on top and reheat in the oven at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes, or until casserole is steaming hot and cheese is bubbly. Serve it with a dollop of sour cream on the side, or inside a burrito for a delicious snack!

This recipe was really good. My family loved it. The only thing i did different was to toast the rolls before putting them in the pan. Everything else was the same.
Will be making this often.
