Cooking Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to smooth out any creases, aiming for a rectangle of about 12×15 inches.
- Layer the thinly sliced ham evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Place the slices of cheese on top of the ham in a single layer.
- If using, spread the Dijon mustard evenly over the cheese.
- Sprinkle some freshly ground black pepper over the top to your liking.
- Starting from one edge, carefully roll the pastry tightly into a log.
- Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the log into 1-inch thick rounds. You should have about 12-15 pinwheels.
- Lay them cut side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Brush the tops of the pinwheels with the beaten egg.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until puffed up and golden brown.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.

These pinwheels are versatile; feel free to add other filling ingredients according to your taste.
