Mummy Boy Dogs- Nightmare Before Christmas

Lucas picked some items from our Nightmare Before Christmas cookbook as his reward meal for summer chores, and these Mummy Boy Dogs were one of them. Fairly easy and tasty, I would make these again.

Mummy Boy Dogs

Ingredients:

• 1 8 oz. sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 1 lg egg beaten with 1 tsp water for egg wash
• 6 hot dogs or smoked sausages, 5-6 inches long
• 6 small black olive slices

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees convection (or 400 standard). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick mat.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out puff pastry to about 9x12 inches. Using the 9-inch side, cut 18 half-inch strips from the dough sheet.
3. Using 3 strips per hot dog, dip the ends of the pastry into the egg wash and wrap the pastry around the hot dog, leaving a small slit near the top of one end for the olive eye. Tuck in one olive eye into the gap in pastry and set the hot dog on your prepared baking sheet. Once all hot dogs are wrapped, refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
4. Just before baking, brush each mummy with more of the egg wash and then bake in your preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the pastry is puffed, golden  and hot dogs are heated all the way through.
