Hickory Ham & Cheddar Crispy Buttery Crust

What is it?

Hickory-smoked ham and reduced-fat cheddar sit inside a crispy, buttery pastry crust in this Hot Pockets freezer staple. The filling leans savory and deli-style, with smoky ham slices and melted cheese tucked into a folded pocket that browns in the microwave or oven. Hot Pockets uses the same basic hand-held format across the lineup, but this one sits on the non-pizza side, alongside other sandwich-style options. Compared with the standard crispy crust versions, the buttery crust bakes up a little richer and more layered, with a golden exterior that reads more like pastry than bread.
