Ham & Cheese Sticky Buns

Ingredients

9 ounces deli ham, finely chopped
2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 (16.3 ounce) cans refrigerated jumbo flaky layers biscuits*
maple syrup

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°.

Arrange biscuits in 4 rows on lightly floured surface.  Pinch biscuits together to form a square.  Roll dough to a 12- x 16-inch rectangle (about 1/4 inch thick), pinching dough together as needed.  Spread with  mustard, then sprinkle brown sugar, and top with a layer of ham and then Swiss.  Roll up tightly, starting at long side. Pinch ends to seal. Cut into 16 slices using a serrated knife.  Fit each slice into cups of a lightly greased 24-cup muffin pan.  (Dough will extend over tops of cups.)

Bake at 325° for 40 minutes or until golden and centers are completely cooked. Cool on a wire rack 10 minutes.  Drizzle with syrup.

*Note:  Be sure to use the flaky biscuits such as Pillsbury Grands Flaky Layers Original refrigerated biscuits.  (The regular biscuits get too big and fluffy.)
