Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the puff pastry sticks bake evenly and achieve a golden-brown color.
Step 2: Prepare the Puff Pastry
Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. If needed, use a rolling pin to achieve an even thickness.
Step 3: Spread Dijon Mustard
Using a pastry brush or the back of a spoon, evenly spread Dijon mustard over the entire surface of the puff pastry. The mustard adds a tangy flavor that complements the richness of the ham and cheese.
Step 4: Add Ham Slices
Place the thinly sliced ham over the mustard-covered puff pastry. Ensure an even layer, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 5: Sprinkle Cheese
Evenly sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese over the ham layer. The cheese will melt during baking, creating a gooey and flavorful filling.
Step 6: Roll and Slice
Carefully roll the puff pastry sheet into a log, starting from one of the longer sides. Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the log into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Step 7: Arrange on Baking Sheet
Place the sliced puff pastry sticks on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each stick to allow for expansion during baking
