Ingredients
- 1 tube refrigerated pizza dough
- ¾ pound Black Forest ham thinly sliced, between 12 and 16 slices
- 8 slices cheese your favorite variety or shredded
- ¼ cup Garlic butter melted
- mustard your favorite variety, if needed for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a 6 hole muffin pan with cooking spray and set aside.
- Roll out your refrigerated pizza dough into a rectangle. Using a brush, coat dough in melted garlic butter.
- Top with slices of ham and shredded or sliced cheese, starting at a corner. Lay slices of ham and cheese until the dough is totally covered.
- Starting at the narrow end, roll the dough up as tightly as possible.
- Slice roll 5 times so you have 6 pieces, between 1 ½ and 2 inches thick.
- Place your slices in your prepared muffin pan and brush remaining melted butter across the top of each pinwheel.
- Bake, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes or until a golden brown color. Serve and enjoy! These are delicious as a snack or a small meal or even dipped in over easy egg yolks!

Notes
- Ensure the blade is sharp enough to make clean and even slices. This will also prevent squishing them while cutting.
- Ensure the ham and cheese are layered evenly so each pinwheel has the same amount of filling.
- Cold dough is harder to roll and rips easier. Let it sit out for 30 minutes before you make the pinwheels.
- Use a sharp knife: Ensure the blade is sharp enough to make clean and even slices. This will also prevent squishing them while cutting.
- Layer the ingredients evenly: Ensure the ham and cheese are layered evenly so each pinwheel has the same amount of filling.
- Use room temperature dough: Cold dough is harder to roll and rips easier. Let it sit out for 30 minutes before you make the pinwheels.
