Ingredients

Cooking spray
1 package (12 rolls total) Hawaiian sweet dinner rolls
3/4 pound deli ham thinly sliced; I use honey ham or black forest ham
1 (12-ounce) package Swiss cheese sliced

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1/2 tablespoon dried minced onion
Salt and pepper optional

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the rolls in half horizontally (see pictures in post) while keeping individual rolls intact. Place the bottom half of the rolls in the prepared pan.
Add half the cheese in an even layer on top of the rolls. Next, add an even layer of ham. Top with the remaining cheese in an even layer on top. Finish with the top half of the rolls.
Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Set aside to slightly cool. Whisk in the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, poppy seeds, minced onion, and salt and pepper to taste. (I add a good pinch of each.)
Slowly pour the butter mixture over the rolls. Use a pastry brush or spatula to evenly spread the mixture over the tops. Some of the mixture will pool at the bottom of the rolls, which you want to make the bottoms crispy! You don’t need to use all the butter mixture—I usually use just over 3/4 of it.
Cover the rolls with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and (watching closely) bake for another 3–5 minutes or until tops are slightly crispy and cheese is melty.
Serve these sliders straight out of the oven!
