Course: Main Course
Servings: 4 people

Ingredients

  • 2 boxes refrigerated pie crust
  • 1 quarter sliced ham
  • 2 TBL brown sugar (split up)
  • 1 cup shredded colby jack cheese or any shredded cheese
  • 1/2 TBL water
  • Edible Markers

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375*F.
  • Get one refrigerated pie crust ready to go by unrolling it out flat. Cut your crust into a 7-inch by 7-inch square. (Save your scraps to roll out and create more than your 4 crusts)
  • Place 1-2 slices of ham in the middle of your square. Sprinkle on 1/2 TBL of brown sugar onto your ham. Top it off with your shredded cheese.
  • Rotate your crust so the bottom is pointed down. You are now going to fold your pastry into an envelope shape. Take the bottom corner and fold it until the point is in the middle of your pastry. Take the right side and fold the corner into the middle. Repeat with the left side, and ending with the top folded down to create the top flap of the envelope.
  • Repeat previous steps until all 4 (or more) howlers are made.
  • Place your howlers onto a baking sheet. Beat your egg and water until it is all mixed and smooth. Brush on the egg wash on top of your howlers.
  • Bake at 375*F for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
