Ingredients

15 baby dill pickles
8 ounces cream cheese
16 ounces thin sliced honey ham I bought Aldi brand

Instructions

Remove the baby dill pickles from the jar and place them on paper towels to dry them. The cream cheese should be softened to a little warmer than room temperature. It should be soft enough to spread easily.
The ham I used was not wet at all, but if yours is, pat it with a paper towel to dry it. The rollups will stay crisp if the pickles are dry (with a matte appearance) and the ham is dry.
Lay out 2-3 pieces of thin sliced ham. Spread cream cheese over the ham slices. Place two dried pickles at one end, and roll up the ham so the pickle is inside. Continue with the remaining ham slices.
Once all of the rolls are made, use a sharp knife to slice the ham roll ups. I get 4-5 slices out of each roll up. The ends may not stay together well, but those are the scraps I let the kids snack on!
Place the rollups in an airtight container and store in the fridge until serving.

Notes

If you have thicker, larger ham slices, you may only need one.
For more flavor, mix in 1 tablespoon of dry ranch seasoning to the cream cheese.
If you're having a hard time cutting slices, refrigerate the rollups for 20 minutes or so to firm up the cream cheese.
