Spread a thin layer of mustard over the pastry, if using.
Evenly layer the ham slices across the pastry, followed by the shredded cheese.
4. Roll and Chill:
Starting from one long side, roll the pastry tightly into a log.
Wrap the log in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 20–30 minutes to firm up.
5. Slice into Pinwheels:
Using a sharp knife, slice the chilled log into 1/2-inch thick pinwheels.
6. Bake:
Arrange the pinwheels on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Brush each with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
7. Serve:
Allow the pinwheels to cool slightly before serving.
