  6. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the chili.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the hotdog is heated through.

Notes

  • To prevent the hot dog buns from becoming soggy, toast them lightly in the oven before adding the hot dogs and chili.
  • Shredding cheese straight from the block is always better than prepackaged. It doesn’t have additives to keep it from sticking together so it melts easier and more evenly.
  • Add the onions and fresh jalapenos before baking to slightly soften them. It also keeps them from falling off.
