Unroll dough; separate into 2 squares. To make 24 short strips, cut each square in half across strips. Shape each short strip into a coil; arrange cut side down over cheese. Top with remaining cheese. In medium bowl, beat eggs, half-and-half and pepper sauce with wire whisk until blended. Pour over dough in dish.

One pound cooked and drained bulk hot pork sausage can be layered over the green chiles.
