Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients: 1 1/4 cups (163 g) all-purpose or bread flour, plus more for dusting and kneading; 1 teaspoon instant yeast; 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt; 1/4 cup (60 ml) whole or 2% milk; 1/4 cup (60 ml) water; 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for the bowl; 1 tablespoon honey; 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, plus more for serving, optional; 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder; 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika; Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan; 1 1/2 cups (175 g) grated Cheddar; 6 jumbo hot dogs; 1 teaspoon poppy seeds, optional; 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, optional; Dijonnaise, optional; Ketchup, optional

Directions

Special equipment:

a 9- or 10-inch springform pan; a small oven-safe ramekin

Whisk together the flour, yeast and salt in a large bowl until well combined.
Combine the milk, water, butter and honey in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl and heat just until the butter is melted and the mixture is lukewarm. If it accidentally gets a little too hot, just set the mixture aside for a few minutes.
Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the dough onto a floured work surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place the dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover with a plate or plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hours 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, stir together the Dijon, garlic powder and paprika in a small bowl.
When the dough has risen, heat your oven to 375 degrees F and grease a 9- or 10-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray. Lightly grease the outside of a small oven-safe ramekin and place in the center of the pan. Set aside.
Punch the dough down and turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface. Roll into approximately a 36-inch log then cut into 6 equal pieces. Press and lightly roll each piece of dough to 1/4 inch thick and the same length of your hot dogs. Brush the Dijon mixture across the length of each piece of dough and scatter over the Cheddar. Place a hot dog on top and bring the dough up and around, pinching to seal.
Cut each into 3 equal pieces and arrange the pigs in a blanket, cut-side up, in the prepared springform pan around the ramekin. Scatter with the poppy and sesame seeds.
Bake until golden brown and the dough is springy, 35 to 40 minutes. Set aside to cool for 10 to 15 minutes.   
To serve, remove the outer part of the springform pan and transfer to a plate. Fill the ramekin with Dijon, Dijonnaise or ketchup, and serve.
