1/2 pound honey ham, thinly sliced
03 -
6-8 slices Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
04 -
6-8 slices white American cheese, thinly sliced
→ Butter Sauce
05 -
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
06 -
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
07 -
1 tablespoon poppy seeds

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and coat a 23x33 cm (9x13 inch) baking dish liberally with cooking spray. Set aside.
02 -
Unroll the crescent dough into one sheet on a cutting board. Pinch together any separating seams and roll to a 25x33 cm (10x13 inch) dimension.
03 -
Evenly lay the honey ham over the dough, leaving a 1.3 cm (1/2 inch) margin at each edge. Continue with Swiss cheese and white American cheese layers.
04 -
Tightly roll up the dough from the short side. Using a serrated knife, cut into 16 even slices. To ensure even cuts, make a cut in the middle, then the middle of those two pieces and continue until you have 16 slices.
05 -
Place the pinwheel slices into the prepared baking dish. Set aside.
06 -
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Whisk in the dijon mustard, poppy seeds, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce and salt until well combined.
07 -
Baste the butter mixture over the tops of the pinwheels, ensuring even coverage.
08 -
Bake uncovered for 20-24 minutes or until the tops are lightly browned and the dough has puffed.
09 -
Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
# Notes:
01 -
These pinwheels can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to bake.
02 -
For extra flavor, try adding a thin layer of cream cheese beneath the ham.
