Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Roll out a sheet of thawed puff pastry and evenly distribute slices of cheese over it, adding deli ham on top. Place another sheet of puff pastry atop and press together gently.

Slice the combined pastry into 1-inch wide strips with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.

Fold each 1-inch pastry strip back and forth onto a wooden skewer, shaping it like a tree.

Combine melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley in a bowl. Brush this mixture over each tree.

Place the trees on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.

Allow to cool slightly on a wire rack and serve warm, optionally with honey mustard or fig jam.
