1 (16 ounce) package cocktail sausages or mini hot dogs
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles. If using seamless dough, press the seams together to form a rectangle, then cut into 16 small rectangles.
Cut each triangle or rectangle in half lengthwise to create smaller, thinner strips.
Pat the cocktail sausages dry with a paper towel.
Wrap each sausage with a strip of dough, starting from one end and rolling it to the other. Pinch the seam to seal.
Place the wrapped sausages seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the dough with the beaten egg wash. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or poppy seeds if desired.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup or mustard.
Notes
For a more homemade taste, you can use biscuit dough instead of crescent rolls.
These can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking. Bake them directly from the refrigerator, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.
Consider serving with a variety of dips to suit different tastes.
