Ingredients:
- 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 8 slices deli ham
- 4 tablespoons prepared mustard
- 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
Begin by preheating your oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC). This will ensure your rolls bake evenly and turn out perfectly golden brown. -
-
Prepare the Dough:
Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface, dividing it into 4 long rectangles. Gently press the diagonal perforations to seal them, creating a smooth dough surface for your filling. -
Assemble the Filling:
Lay a slice of deli ham on each dough rectangle. Spread a thin layer of prepared mustard over the ham. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded Swiss cheese and cheddar cheese on top. -
Roll the Dough:
Starting from the shortest side of each rectangle, carefully roll up the dough, making sure the filling stays inside. Press and seal the edges to keep everything together. -
Add a Crunchy Topping:
Brush the tops of the rolls with a bit of water or egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over them. This will give the rolls a delightful crunch and a hint of nutty flavor. -
Slice and Bake:
Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 5 slices, giving you a total of 20 bite-sized pieces. Place the slices cut side down on an ungreased cookie sheet, spacing them evenly. -
Bake to Perfection:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy. The exact time may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on them towards the end of the baking time. -
Cool and Store:
Once baked, remove the rolls from the cookie sheet and let them cool slightly. Serve them warm for a delicious snack or let them cool completely and store them in the freezer. These rolls freeze wonderfully and can be quickly reheated in the microwave for a fast and tasty treat later.
