Ingredients

1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed

flour, for dusting

--filling:

4 tablespoons sweet hot mustard

4 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced

1 cup Parmesan, freshly grated

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350F.

Dust work surface with four and roll pastry sheet into a rectangle approximately 11x14 inches. Using a pastry brush, brush excess flour from surface of pastry. Spread mustard evenly over pastry, arrange prosciutto in a flat layer over mustard and sprinkle cheese evenly all over.

Starting at long end, roll up pastry jelly-roll style until you reach the middle of the sheet. Roll the other half in the same manner until the two sides meet in the center.

Place on a baking sheet and set a flat spatula or wooden spoon on each side to keep it from unrolling. Place in freezer until well chilled, at least 20 minutes.

Can be made ahead at this point and kept frozen, tightly wrapped for up to 3 months!)

When ready to bake, slice partially thawed roll into 1/2 inch slices and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until puffed and golden.

Serve warm or at room temperature.
