Cheesy Prosciutto and Asparagus Rolls



These little rolls make a great appetizer, or side dish for a light dinner with a salad.  The recipe uses premade puff pastry dough to save time.  If you are not able to get prosciutto where you live, you could cook some bacon slices and use them as a substitute.  Or if you would prefer no meat, just leave the prosciutto out.  This is another recipe from Joanne Fluke's, "Raspberry Danish Murder."

2 sheets puff pastry dough
20 slices prosciutto cut into long thin strips
20 spears asparagus, trimmed
 2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
 2 T. melted butter
Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface.  Wrap a piece of prosciutto around the asparagus spear. 


Press the spear into the cheese.

 Lay the asparagus on the edge of the dough and roll until the dough covers the spear.  Cut.  Brush with melted butter.  Repeat with remaining spears.

Bake at 450 degrees for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
