Puff Pastry Gruyere and Hickory Farms Summer Sausage

Okay, we are planning for bunkering in this weekend, enjoying the Superbowl on TV.  Well, I can say I will enjoy the  planning and cooking for the big event.  Try this to serve before the game.

Have you received gift baskets for Christmas containing Hickory Farms Summer Sausage Rolls?  Well, you may enjoy this recipe in order to use those Hickory Summer Sausage Rolls.  Remember, you cannot forget, just have some fun!

1 box of frozen puff pastry.  Place in refrigerator over night in order to work the dough easier
3 tablespoons of Grey Poupon Dijon Mustard
3 tablespoons of honey
½ to ¾ pound of Le Gruyere Switzerland cheese – grated
1 - 10 ounce roll Hickory Farms Beef Summer Sausage with has been sliced with a Mandolin Slicer

Lightly flour a cutting board with flour.  Roll out ½ of the puff pastry until the pastry fits on a parchment lined jelly roll pan (10X15).

Brush with a pastry brush the puff pastry with mustard and honey mixed together.
Layer evenly the Hickory Farms Beef Summer Sausage and then evenly spread the grated Le Gruyere Cheese.

Top with Puff Pastry which has been rolled out to fit the bottom 10 X 15.  Cut slits on the top for releasing the heat and preventing the puff pastry  puffing out.

Bake at 350 degree oven for 30 minutes until puff pastry is browned all over.  You may need to bake longer.  Keep your eyes on the puff pastry.  Let cool for 15 minutes, slice with a pizza roller.  Enjoy with a glass of wine!
