Ham and Cheese Sticky Bun Sandwiches

Here is the promised recipe for the sticky bun ham sandwiches!  I found this to be the perfect make-ahead food to feed a large amount of people.  I assembled the sandwiches (omitting the sauce and baking) and froze the pans until I needed them. 

These sandwiches are so low-maintenance.  Once baked, they can be served hot, warm, or room temperature.  They're even great the next day straight out of the refrigerator. 

The original recipe was given to me by a friend.  It called for an obscene amount of butter.  I more than halved that amount, and the result was spectacular.  The combination of salty and sweet combined with sticky and gooey - satisfies every craving you've ever had. 

You could make these sandwiches for a bridal shower, picnic, cocktail party, or even for a light dinner. 

Whatever you make them for, I promise you that you'll love them!

Ham and Cheese Sticky Bun Sandwiches

2 T mustard
2 packages Martins potato rolls (dinner roll sized, 12 in each package)
3/4 lb sliced deli ham
3/4 sliced swiss cheese

After assembling ham and cheese sandwiches (rolls, ham, cheese), combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan.  Bring mixture to a boil for 2 minutes.  Pour mixture over assembled sandwiches.  Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
