Add prepared mushrooms, spinach, ham and half of the grated cheese to the mixture. Season with cracked pepper. Mix to combine then set aside to cool slightly.
In the meantime, cut each sheet of puff pastry into quarters so that you get 4 squares from each sheet.
Place a dollop of the mushroom mixture in the center of each pastry square Top with extra grated cheese. Carefully fold the tip of each square towards the center to partially enclose the filling.
