    I can't believe I forgot to review these! This spring, my church's youth group held a bake sale and I made these and put 2 cookies in those cardboard red and white serving containers you see in restaurants and cafeterias. They were so adorable. My preacher laughed when he saw them, then promptly bought some! Thanks for this adorable recipe!

    These are just the cutest cookies! My 5 year old and I made them and had so much fun. She could even help with the rolling of the weiners and buns. She then had a great time asking our entire family if they wanted a "Hot Dog" and then bringing them the cookie for a trick ha-ha! We used plain coconut and icing sugar as chopped onion, and also red tubed icing for ketchup....just to add more toppings. Thanks for posting such a fun recipe!

    Thanks for sharing this recipe. These are too cute! My daughter and I made these for a treat for the last day of school and they were so fun to make. These would be big sellers at bake sales. Thanks for sharing this recipe! Edited to add I used Sugar Cookie Icing tinted yellow for the icing and it worked great!
