Method

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix all ingredients except dough and Parmesan cheese. If using crescent rolls, unroll dough onto cookie sheet. Press to form into a 13 X 7 inch rectangle, pressing perforations to seal. If using a dough sheet, unroll dough onto cookie sheet, then press to form into a 13 X 7 inch rectangle. Spoon ham mixture in 3 inch wide strip lengthwise down center of dough. With scissors or sharp knife, make cuts about 1 1/2 inches apart on long sides of dough to within 1/2 inch of filling. Alternately cross strips over filling. Tuck ends under and press to seal. Sprinkle dough with Parmesan cheese. Bake 23-30 minutes or until deep golden brown then cool 5 minutes. Cut crosswise into slices to serve.
