Ham In A Blanket Recipes

HAM AND CHEESE CRESCENT ROLL-UPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Separate dough into 8 triangles. Place 1 piece of ham on each triangle; place 2 strips of cheese down center of ham. Fold in edges of ham to match shape of dough triangle.
• Roll up each crescent, ending at tip of triangle. Place with tips down on ungreased cookie sheet.
• Bake 15 to 19 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.

FRENCH HAM-AND-BRIE PIGS IN BLANKETS

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and caramelized, about 15 minutes. Raise the heat a little, and cook to develop a more golden color, about 5 minutes more. Transfer the onions to a small bowl to cool completely.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut each slice of ham into 3 strips about 2 inches by 5 inches. Cut the Brie into 24 pieces about 1/4 inch by 1 inch. On each strip of ham, place 1/4 teaspoon of the caramelized onions and 1 piece of Brie, and roll up tightly.
• Open the tube of dough, and separate it into 8 triangles at the perforations. Cut each triangle into 3 long, thin triangles (for 24 pieces total). Lay 1 ham roll centered on the tip end of a triangle, roll until you reach the flat end and place, seam-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining triangles and ham rolls. Top each finished roll with a dab (about 1/8 teaspoon) of the remaining onions. Bake until the dough is golden brown and cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm with Dijon mustard on the side.

CUBANO IN A BLANKET

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Cut the ham slices into strips about 1 1/2 inches by 4 inches. Cut the cheese slices into strips about 1 1/2 inches by 3 inches.
• Separate the dough into triangles, then slice each triangle in half lengthwise so you have 32 triangles. Place a slice of ham onto each triangle. Brush the ham with a little mustard. Place a slice of cheese on each ham slice, then a cocktail frank and finally a sliced gherkin. Roll up each starting at the wide end of the triangle and rolling towards the small tapered end. Place on a lined baking sheet with the small tapered end on the bottom.
• Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve with mustard for dipping.
