monte cristo folds

monte cristos are delicious.  bennigan’s makes a pretty mean one, even though there is no way i could ever eat one by myself.  these are my new favorite monte cristo… the portion size is reasonable and the egg wash on top just makes these delicious!

• 1/4 lb, chopped deli ham
• 1/4 lb. chopped deli turkey
• 1/2 c mozzarella cheese, chopped
• 1/2 c cheddar or american cheese, chopped
• 8 biscuits (from the fridge tube or frozen leftovers, thawed)
• 1 egg
• 1 tbsp milk
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• powdered sugar
• raspberry jam

1. heat oven to 375°.
2. in a medium bowl, mix ham, turkey and cheese.
3. separate dough into 8 biscuits.  press or roll each to form 6-7″ round.
4. place 1/3 c ham mixture on one side of each biscuit round.  fold dough over filling.  press edges to seal with a fork.  place on un-greased cookie sheet.
5. in a small bowl, beat egg, milk, cinnamon and nutmeg.  brush over tops of filled biscuits.  bake 12-19 minutes or until golden brown.  sprinkle with powdered sugar.  serve with jam.

enjoy!
