Prepare the Baking Dish:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to ensure easy cleanup.
Mix the Filling:
In a large bowl, combine the sliced hot dogs, chili, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. For an extra flavor boost, add the diced onion if desired. Stir until all the ingredients are evenly mixed.
Assemble the Casserole:
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, making sure it covers the entire base. Spread the hot dog and chili mixture evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top, covering the filling generously.
Bake the Casserole:
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crescent roll dough is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted. Keep an eye on the edges to prevent over-browning.
Cool and Serve:
Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing into portions. Serve warm, and enjoy the cheesy, savory goodness of this hearty dish.
