24 cocktail sausages (mini frankfurters or Lil’ Smokies)
1 large egg (or 2 tablespoons melted butter)
2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
Optional: Spicy mustard or cheese sauce for dipping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup later.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into the 8 pre-cut triangles. Use a knife or a pizza cutter to slice each triangle lengthwise into three smaller, thin triangles. You should end up with a total of 24 small triangles of dough.
Place one cocktail sausage on the wide end of a small dough triangle. Carefully roll the dough toward the point, wrapping the sausage snugly. Place the wrapped sausage on the prepared baking sheet with the point of the dough facing down to keep it from unrolling.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with a teaspoon of water to create an egg wash. Use a pastry brush to lightly coat the top of each dough-wrapped sausage. Immediately sprinkle a generous amount of everything bagel seasoning over the top of each piece so it sticks to the egg wash.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. The snacks are ready when the pastry is puffed and has turned a beautiful golden brown color. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
