Italian Sandwich Squares....

Friday night I made Italian Sandwich Squares. Got the basic idea from a cookbook saying to make pizza squares using pepperoni and cheese. I decided I wanted something a bit more grown up so. I'm taking the basic idea and making a bunch of changes.

Here's the ingredients:
1 cans of garlic butter crescent roll dough
1 can of regular crescent roll dough
1/4 pound each of Hard Salami, Pepperoni and Black Forest Ham
1/8 pound each of Muenster and Provolone cheese
1 egg, beaten and add a tablespoon of water
1/8 cup of pesto


First, roll out the garlic crescent roll dough on a cookie sheet (greased) and yes, all in one piece. You have to pinch the edges and make sure all the seams are mostly sealed. Then bake it for about 8 to 9 minutes at 375. Let it cool a bit. 10-15 minutes.

Next, start layering.I started with the pepperoni, but any order is good. Layer pepperoni, then brush it with the pesto. Put a layer of salami, provolone, ham then the muenster cheese.Take the other can of the dough and lay it over the top, again sealing the seams. Then brush it with an egg wash and bake it for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
