Mix goat cheese, garlic and pepper in a small bowl to blend. Set aside.
Cook asparagus in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl of ice water and cool. Drain and pat dry. Arrange proscuitto slices on work surface. Cut each in half crosswise. Spread 1 side of each prosciutto slice with cheese mixture. Place 1 asparagus spear at 1 short end of each slice. Roll up tightly. Transfer to baking sheet. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake asparagus until heated through, about 5 minutes. Transfer asparagus to platter and serve.
