Ham and Cheese Pinwheels

These hot ham and cheese pinwheels are rolls loaded with plenty of meat and swiss, then topped with a butter poppy seed sauce and baked to golden brown perfection. I serve ham and cheese roll ups at every party and there are never any leftovers!

Ingredients

  • 1 tube refrigerated pizza dough
  • 3/4 lb ham very thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces swiss cheese very thinly sliced
  • 8 tablespoons butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
  • cooking spray
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9"x13" pan with cooking spray.
  • Unroll the pizza dough onto a non-stick surface and roll it into a large rectangle, roughly 13"x8" in size. 
  • Layer the ham on top of the pizza dough to cover it completely, then layer the cheese in the same fashion.
  • Starting at one of the long ends, tightly roll up the dough, jelly roll style, pinching the end to seal. 
  • Cut the loaf crosswise into 12 equal sized pieces, then arrange in the prepared pan.
  • Whisk together the butter, brown sugar, Dijon mustard and poppy seeds, then pour evenly over the rolls. 
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle with parsley if desired, then serve.

Notes

  1. You can also make this recipe with crescent roll sheets instead of pizza dough, use 2 of the 8 ounce cans.
  2. The rolls can be stored unbaked for up to 24 hours in the fridge, simply cover with foil and then bake them when you're ready.
