Set aside. 2 Unroll dough and separate into 2 long rectangles; press each into 15x5-inch rectangle, firmly pressing perforations to seal. Cut each rectangle into 3 squares. 3 Place 1 cheese-filled chile diagonally on each square. Bring sides of dough up over chile; pinch firmly to seal. Fold down top; pinch to seal. Firmly pinch bottom point together to seal; place seam side down on ungreased cookie sheet. Brush tops with egg. 4 Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, heat taco sauce. Immediately remove rellenos from cookie sheet. Serve warm with warm taco sauce for dipping.
