Ham and Cheese Sliders

These are so simple but so surprisingly good. I’ve made several versions of these mini ham and cheese sandwiches throughout time but this one is by far and away the best. They are perfect when you have a big group of kids coming over and you want to put something out that is easy to serve that will please everyone. But don’t get me wrong, the grown-ups will love ’em too which makes them a fantastic choice for a buffet or finger food at parties. But most often, I make them as an easy, light dinner served with a bowl of soup. I normally use deli ham but this is a great way to use up any leftover ham you might have on hand after a holiday party.

Potato dinner rolls are my first choice for this recipe. They are a soft and buttery and perfect for this. They are also very good with King’s Hawaiian Rolls. You can use any dinner rolls that you can get your hands on.

All 24 fit perfectly on my 12″ x 17″ jelly roll pan but any rimmed baking sheet will do. You can even use a couple of 13″ x 9″ pans. Layer the ham and cheese on the bottom half of the dinner rolls.

Make sure your butter is nice and soft and combine it well with the poppy seeds, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, and onion powder. It will spread easily on to the tops of the rolls.

Spread some of the butter mixture on the top of the dinner roll and place on the assembled sliders. Use an equal amount of butter on each slider.

I guarantee you they will be gone in a flash.
