Prosciutto-Asiago Swirls

3 Tbsp. Lunds and Byerly's Honey Truffle Mustard
4 oz. prosciutto, thinly sliced
2 c. Asiago or fontina cheese, shredded
1 Tbsp. Lunds and Byerly's Tuscan Seasoning
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten
Unfold pastry onto lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet in half to form four rectangles. Spread mustard over each rectangle, leaving 1-inch border along one long edge. On each rectangle, arrange prosciutto over mustard.
In medium bowl, combine cheese, Tuscan seasoning and pepper. Sprinkle cheese mixture over prosciutto.
Brush plain border of each rectangle with beaten egg. Starting at side opposite egg-washed border, roll pastry jellyroll style, sealing at egg-washed side.
Transfer pastry roll to parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill rolls until firm (about 30 minutes), or wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
To serve: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Slice each roll into ¼-inch thick rounds; arrange flat-side down on parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden, turning over halfway through baking time (18–20 minutes). Serve immediately. Makes 48 appetizers.
