Creating Ham and Cheese Sticks is a fun and straightforward process. Follow these step-by-step instructions to achieve tasty results:

1. Preheat your Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
2. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
3. Roll Out Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface. Separate it into triangles.
4. Add Ham and Cheese: Place a strip of ham and a strip of cheese on the wider end of each triangle.
5. Roll Them Up: Starting from the wide end, roll the dough tightly towards the point to form a stick.
6. Brush with Egg: Place the rolled sticks on the baking sheet and brush each one with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
7. Season (Optional): Sprinkle with garlic powder or Italian herbs for extra flavor.
8. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
9. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the sticks to cool slightly before serving.
