Prosciutto and Gruyère Pastry Pinwheels

Quick and tasty!

  • ¾ c finely grated Gruyère (about 3 ounces)

  3. Arrange one half of sheet with a long side facing you and brush edge of far side with some egg.
  4. Arrange half of prosciutto evenly on top of pastry, avoiding egg-brushed edge, and top with half of Gruyère mixture.
  5. Starting with side nearest you, roll pastry jelly-roll fashion into a log and wrap in wax paper. Make 2nd log in same manner.
  6. Chill pastry logs, seam sides down, until firm, at least 3 hours, and up to 3 days.
  7. Preheat oven to 400F and grease 2 baking sheets.
  8. Cut logs crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick pinwheels and arrange, cut sides down, 1 inch apart on baking sheets.
