Use MANY
Dollars is a count noun (in other words, you can say 1 dollar, 2 dollars, 3 dollars, etc.) so you use "many"
"much" is used with non-count nouns -- for example:
How much money do you earn per month?
(generally speaking, you can't say 1 money, 2 monies, etc.)

You would say, "How many dollars" because dollars are a
specific unit. You use much when you're referring to something general.

When you use the word many a specific number is being asked, requiring a clear quantitative answer. When you use the word much a relative quality is required, as a comparative value. How much do you love him? How many times have you told him so?

"Dollars" is a countable noun, so #2 is correct. Much would be used with uncountable nouns like "money." One wouldn't say "one money, two moneys, three moneys . . .".
