We made these with hot dogs and rather than triangulate the dough, we rolled it over the dogs and sealed with the egg wash as directed making them super simple to assemble. We made half with mustard, half without. Both ways were quite yummy. Thanks for posting. :)

It was yummy. My boyfriend liked it a lot more than I did though. Maybe this recipe could use more sugar or something.. I felt like it was a little bit lacking. That's probably because i'm used to making yeast breads though.
