Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Sliced sandwich bread
- 4 slices Sliced cooked ham
- 4 slices Sliced Swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard, honey, and mayonnaise until well combined. Set aside.
Spread butter evenly on one side of each bread slice. This will be the side that toasts on the skillet.
On the unbuttered side of two bread slices, spread a thin layer of the Dijon-mayo mixture.
Layer 2 slices of ham and 2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of the Dijon-mayo side of each bread slice.
Place the remaining bread slices on top, buttered side facing outward, to form two sandwiches.
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Add the sandwiches to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is melted. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even browning and melting.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, let cool for 1-2 minutes, and slice in half if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Special Hot Ham and Cheese Sandwich!
