Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 24 precooked meatballs thawed if frozen
  • 2 cans sheet dough
  • ¼ cup ketchup, sriracha or hot sauce for eyes
  • your favorite dipping sauces (BBQ, Thai Chile, Ranch, etc)

Instructions
 

  • IMPORTANT: If using precooked meatballs from FROZEN, the meatballs must be 100% THAWED before assembling.
  • IMPORTANT: If using FRESH OR FROZEN meatballs, the meatballs should be 100% precooked and at room temperature before assembling for best results
  • Preheat the oven to the temperature recommended on the sheet dough packaging. Use a pizza cutter wheel or sharp knife to cut long strips into the sheet dough, about a quarter inch thick.
  • Wrap 2-4 strips of sheet dough around each meatball, leaving a small area visible to add the eyes. Bake for the time recommended on the pastry package - usually about 10-15 minutes.
  • When the dough is cooked through and golden brown, remove the meatballs from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Use a toothpick to dot two eyes onto each meatball face. Serve with dipping sauces and enjoy!
  • If you want to make a 'trick' meatball, use ketchup for all of the eyes except for a few - add an insanely spicy hot sauce instead! Happy Halloween!
