Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Open the can of crescent roll dough and separate it into 4 rectangular sheets, pressing along the perforations to seal them.
Cut each rectangular sheet into 4 strips, making a total of 16 strips.
Wrap each mini hot dog sausage with one strip of dough, starting at one end and rolling it tightly to the other end.
Place the wrapped sausages seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash.
Brush the top of each wrapped hot dog with the egg wash to help them achieve a golden color when baked.
Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the hot dogs if desired for extra texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent dough is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with ketchup or mustard on the side for dipping.
