Servings: 18
Author: Amy Sandidge

Equipment

  • 2 baking sheets
  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

  • 2 sheets puff pastry thawed
  • 1 ½-2 cups chopped ham
  • 2 cups grated cheese
  • mustard
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. You don't have to do this, but it makes for easy cleanup.
  • Remove the puff pastry from the package. Roll one sheet out to about 2-3 inches larger than what it was originally.
  • Cut it into 9 squares. They don't need to be perfect, so don't stress.
  • Add a touch of mustard to the center of each square, then about 2 tablespoons chopped ham and 1-2 tablespoons grated cheese.
  • Mix your egg and milk together to make your egg wash. Brush 2 edges of the square, then fold it over to form a triangle.
  • Move it to the baking sheet and press the 2 open edges with a fork to ensure they stay closed.
  • Repeat with all the squares. When they are all done, brush the tops with egg wash and bake until they are golden brown.
  • They are best eaten fresh while it is still crispy and delicious.
  • Now, sit back and enjoy. You deserve it!
