⌛ Chill Time: 15 min

⌛ Total: 45 mins

🛍️ Ingredients:

2 sheets frozen puff pastry thawed overnight in the fridge

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard divided

12 slices deli ham thinly-sliced, good quality

2 cups freshly grated Swiss cheese (or Gruyere or cheddar)

chopped fresh parsley (optional)

👣 Instructions:

1. On a lightly floured piece of parchment paper, roll out the puff pastry into a 10×12-inch rectangle. Spread with 1 1/2 tablespoons mustard, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides. Place 6 ham slices on top. Sprinkle with 1 cup cheese.
2. Starting at a long end, roll the puff pastry into a tight log using the parchment as support. Press the edges together to seal. Wrap the log in plastic wrap, and refrigerate it, seam side down, for 15-30 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 375˚F with racks in the upper and middle. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
4. Using a sharp knife, cut the puff pastry log into 1/2 inch slices. Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 1-2 inches apart.
5. Bake until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes. Let cool slightly. Serve warm.
