Waffled Ham and Cheese Sandwiches
Making hot ham and cheese sandwiches on your waffle iron not only adds some texture and color to the bread, and it makes for a creative and eye-pleasing presentation.
Ingredients
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
- 16 slices firm white sandwich bread
- 8 thin slices boiled ham (1/4 lb.)
- 8 thin slices Swiss cheese (1/4 lb.)
Instructions
- Preheat waffle iron on high until just beginning to smoke.
- Reduce heat to moderate and brush generously with some butter.
- Spread butter on 1 side of 8 bread slices and turn slices over.
- Top 4 slices with 1 slice ham and 1 slice cheese, folding in any overhang, and then top with remaining 4 buttered bread slices, buttered sides up.
- Cook sandwiches in batches (number of batches will depend on size of your waffle maker) until bread is golden and crisp, 4-6 minutes.
- Assemble and cook 4 more sandwiches in same manner.
- Just before serving, cut each sandwich into 2 triangles.
