Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets to slightly stretch them. Cut each sheet into 4 even rectangles, creating a total of 8 rectangles.
Place one hot dog at the edge of a puff pastry rectangle. Lay a slice of bacon on top of the hot dog so it stretches lengthwise.
Carefully roll the puff pastry around the hot dog and bacon, sealing it by pinching the edges gently. Repeat for all 8 hot dogs.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Use a pastry brush to brush the egg wash over the tops of the wrapped hot dogs.
If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds over the tops for added texture and flavor.
Arrange the wrapped hot dogs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the bacon is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup, mustard, or a creamy ranch.
