Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 large hot dogs
  • 2 (10-inch) puff pastry sheets, thawed and divided in half
  • 1 cup white cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 large egg white, beaten for egg wash
  • 1/4 cup Butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 tablespoon Parsley, chopped

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Heat up the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and sear the hot dogs until brown on all sides (3-4 minutes). (You can microwave in a pinch.)
  3. Divide the puff pastry sheets in half, creating four sheets. Top each equally with 1/4 cup of shredded cheese and then a hotdog.
  4. Using a small amount of water, wet the edges of each of the puff pastry sheets. Fold each sheet to enclose the hot dog and cheese.
  5. Brush each pastry with egg wash on all sides.
  6. Place the pastries on a parchment-lined baking sheet, pocket seam down.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. While the hot dogs are baking, mix together the melted butter, garlic salt, and parsley in a small bowl.
  9. Brush each hotdog pocket with the butter mixture, and top each with Kosher salt, to taste.
  10. Bake 5 more minutes and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
