Pull-Apart Hot Dogs

1 8-count package hot dogs

8 5- x 5-inch puff pastry squares

1 egg, beaten

Wrap each puff pastry square around a hot dog and roll up, jelly roll-style.

Using a sharp knife, cut slits in each wrapped hot dog, about ¾ of the way down and 1 inch apart.

Place hot dogs on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg. Bake for 30-35 minutes.

Serve with your favorite mustard.
