• 8 slices Ham
• 4 oz Cream Cheese
• 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
• 1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
• to taste Salt and Pepper

Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. 2Trim the tough ends from the 1 lb of asparagus spears. Lay out the 8 slices of ham flat on a clean surface. Divide the trimmed asparagus into 8 equal portions; place one portion at one end of each ham slice and roll up tightly. Secure each roll with a toothpick if needed.
3. 3Arrange the ham and asparagus rolls in a single layer in a medium baking dish.
4. 4In a small saucepan, melt the 2 tbsp of butter over low heat. Add the 4 oz of cream cheese and 1/2 cup of heavy cream to the saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture is smooth.
5. 5Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese and 1/4 tsp of garlic powder until the cheese is melted and fully incorporated. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
6. 6Pour the prepared cheese sauce evenly over the ham and asparagus rolls in the baking dish. Bake in the preheated 375°F (190°C) oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese sauce is melted and bubbly.
