A delightful and easy-to-make snack or appetizer featuring ham, cream cheese, and a touch of crunch.
Lay out two slices of ham on a flat surface, slightly overlapping them.
Overlapping the ham slices ensures the roll-up stays intact.
Spread a thin layer of softened cream cheese evenly over the ham slices.
Use a spatula for an even spread, and let the cream cheese soften for easier application.
Place a pickle spear at one end of the ham slices.
Ensure the pickle spear is dry to prevent the roll-up from becoming soggy.
Roll the ham slices tightly around the pickle spear.
Roll firmly but gently to avoid tearing the ham.
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
Prepare all roll-ups before slicing for consistent results.
Slice each roll-up into bite-sized pieces and arrange them on a serving platter.
Use a sharp knife for clean cuts, and wipe the blade between slices for a neat presentation.
Serve immediately or chill for a few minutes before serving.
Chilling helps the roll-ups hold their shape better when serving.
