Step by step cooking ham and cheese puffs:
1. Put the dough on the table, powdered with flour and roll it into a thin rectangular layer (3 mm) (25 * 45 cm). Place it on baking paper and place it on a baking tray. If the dough is frozen, defrost it naturally without using the microwave. Otherwise, it will strongly melt and lose all layering.
2. Using a knife, carefully cut the dough sheet into equal four pieces.
3. On one half of each part of the dough, put ham, which you can cut into any shape: strips, cubes, plates.
4. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater and sprinkle the ham on top.
5. Tuck the free edge of the dough and cover the ham and cheese. Firmly fasten the bottom and top edges of the dough together.
6. Make cross-shaped cuts on top of the puffs with a knife.
7. Grease the puffs with butter until golden brown and sprinkle with cheese shavings. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and send the puffs to bake for 15 minutes. They cook very quickly, so be careful not to dry them out. Serve them hot. If the puffs are cool, you can reheat them in the microwave. And if you store them for several days, then wrap them in a plastic bag so that they do not get weathered.
