Ingredients

• 2 12-packs King’s Hawaiian Rolls (party potato rolls are good substitute)
• 1 pound shaved Virginia ham
• 24 slices Swiss cheese
• 1-1/2 sticks butter
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons dried minced onions
• 2 teaspoons poppy seeds

Instructions

1. Slice the King’s Hawaiian rolls in half.
2. Line the bottom of a 9X13" baking pan with the bottom halves of the rolls (they should just fit).
3. Spread half the ham over the rolls, and then layer half the the swiss cheese on top.
4. Repeat the ham and cheese layers once more. Place the other halves of the rolls on top, press them down gently. Set the baking pan aside.
5. In a small sauce pan, combine the butter, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and dried onions.
6. Over medium heat, stir until the butter has melted to create the sauce.
7. Pour the sauce over top of the rolls in the baking pan, and then sprinkle the tops with the poppy seeds.
8. Cover the baking pan tightly with aluminum foil, and then refrigerate for at least three hours or overnight (better).

When you’re ready to bake:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Place the covered baking dish in the oven for 20 minutes.
3. Uncover and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese has finished melting.

Notes

Serve warm or at room temperature. Makes 24 mini sandwiches.

I love this for a baby blessing - when I'm in charge of a dinner at Bear Lake etc...

If you have any leftovers move to another pan or clean dish to store so they come out cleaner on the next day.  Summer's Baby Blessing luncheon 10/10  Aug. 2, 2015
