On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry to 1/16th inch thick, into a rectangle about 11-inches long and about 5 to 6 inches wide. Using a pizza cutter, cut thin, 1/4-inch wide strips down the longer side of the pastry.
Cut each sausage link in half, leaving 6 sausages total that are about 3 inches long.
Using 2 strips per sausage, dip the ends of the pastry into the egg wash and wrap them around each sausage, leaving a small slit near the top of each sausage for the “eyes.”
Place on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 15 minutes, then preheat the oven to 400°F. Mix the beaten egg with 1 tsp of water to make the egg wash.
Remove from fridge and gently brush with egg wash. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Put the ketchup or mustard into a bowl. Using a toothpick, draw eyes onto each mummy.
Enjoy your spooktactular mummies!
