Ingredients
- 24 mini sausages or cocktail franks

- Sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Place a sausage at the wide end of each triangle and roll it up toward the tip. Repeat for all sausages.
