Ingredients

• 1 can crescent rolls , 8 ounce
• 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
• 2 thins slices Black Forest ham , cut in half
• 4 slices sharp Cheddar cheese , cut in half
• 1 large egg
• 2 teaspoons water
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Unroll dough onto the parchment paper. Press perforated seams together or use a rolling pin to roll dough into a single large rectangle.

3. 3

   Cut dough in half crosswise to form 2 squares, then cut each square in half again so you have 4 large rectangles. Spread a bit of mustard on 1 half of each rectangle.

4. 4

   Lay 1 ham slice over mustard, then top with 2 cheese slices. Repeat for all rectangles.

5. 5

   Lift the bare end of dough up and bring it over the end with toppings. Press down on all sides, then use a fork to press down and seal the "pocket" all the way around.

6. 6

   Whisk egg and water together with a fork in a small bowl or cup, then brush egg wash on each hot pocket. Sprinkle each pocket with sesame seeds.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven until dough is puffed and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Serve with mustard.
