Sprinkle 3 Tbsp of the chesse and the pepper evenly over 1 of the pastry pieces: cover with ham slices. Place remaining pasty piece, egg side down, over ham. Brush with additional egg ixture. Roll gently with rolling pin to seal. Roll in jelly-roll fashion to make a 14 inch log. Cut into 24 equal slices. Place, cut side down, on parchment - covered baking sheet. Brush with remaining egg mixture; sprinkle with remaining 1 Tbsp cheese.
