Ham and Pickle Roll-Ups
These Ham and Pickle Roll-Ups are made with just 3 ingredients in 10 minutes. They make the perfect no-cook make ahead party appetizer!
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 5 slices deli ham
- 6 ounces whipped cream cheese
- 5 whole dill pickles See notes – average size, not too large
Instructions
- Spread cream cheese on a slice of ham, and roll up around a pickle. Set aside and repeat with the rest of the ingredients.
- Slice into 1-inch pieces and arrange on a serving platter. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve. Use toothpicks if desired to stand roll ups and keep them together.
Notes
- Pat pickles dry with a paper towel before rolling to prevent soggy rolls.
- Use pickles about the same width as your ham slices (regular dill spears, not baby dills or extra-large).
- Spread cream cheese in a thin, even layer to prevent it from squeezing out when rolling.
- Roll tightly and press gently to seal as you go.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes (ideally 1–2 hours) before slicing for cleanest cuts.
- Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts to prevent cream cheese buildup.
- Slice into 1-inch pieces for bite-sized appetizers (about 5–6 pieces per roll).
- Make ahead up to 24 hours. Store whole rolls covered in the fridge and slice 2–3 hours before serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for 4–5 days. Do not freeze.
- This recipe makes about 25–30 pieces total (5 rolls sliced into 1-inch pieces).
