Ham and Cheese Croissants

The only thing better than a fresh croissant is a savory, stuffed ham and cheese croissant. Instead of simply sandwiching the ham and cheese inside, everything gets rolled right into the pastry, so every bite has flaky layers and a savory filling. It’s not a traditional croissant recipe, but it’s so good, and they only take about 10 minutes to prep.
