Vincent Price's Horror Dogs
Although Vincent Price was most well known for his frightening horror movie roles in the 1950s, he and his wife were also serious cooks and gourmets, writing cookbooks on the side. This recipe is aptly called "horror dogs," after the theatrical persuasion of their creator.
