Ingredients
 

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Unroll the crescent dough with the longest side at the bottom, creating a large rectangle.
  • Lay the Black Forest ham on top of the dough, followed by the Swiss cheese.
  • Starting with the shorter side, carefully roll the dough into a log shape.
  • Slice the roll into individual rolls about 1-inch thick.
  • Place the rolls in the prepared dish making sure to leave room between each one.
  • In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, poppy seeds, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Brush the butter mixture all over the rolls using a pastry brush, ensuring that each one is coated evenly.
  • Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  • Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Honey ham may be substituted for black forest ham.
  • I prefer Swiss cheese in these pinwheels, but other cheeses may be substituted, such as mozzarella or sharp cheddar.
  • Poppy seeds can be omitted.
  • Be sure to arrange your pinwheels evenly in the baking dish so that they will bake up evenly.
  • These pinwheels are great as an appetizer or a light meal.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • I love to serve these pinwheels with honey mustard or ranch for dipping.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
