1

Preheat the oven

First things first, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). We want it nice and toasty for our mini bites!

2

Prepare the ingredients

Gather the following items: 12 slices of ham, 12 mini dinner rolls, 6 slices of cheese (cut into halves), 4 tablespoons of butter (melted), 2 tablespoons of mustard (optional).

3

Slice those buns

Carefully slice each mini dinner roll in half horizontally. Think of it as a tiny surgery, but tastier!

4

Layer it up

Take a slice of ham and fold it into a small square. Place it on the bottom half of the dinner roll. Next, add half a slice of cheese on top of the ham. Cheese on ham? That's a winning combo!

5

Seal the deal

Replace the top half of the dinner roll to create a delicious ham and cheese sandwich. Press it gently to secure all the flavors together. You don't want any escape artists!

6

Brush on the goodness

In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and mustard (if using) together. Brush this magical mixture onto the tops of the mini bites. It's like giving each one a shiny new coat!

7

Into the oven they go

Place the mini bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Slide the sheet into the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until they turn golden and the cheese gets all melty. Your kitchen will smell amazing!

8

Let them cool (a little)

Once out of the oven, resist the temptation to gobble them up right away. Let the Mini Ham and Cheese Bites cool for a couple of minutes. They'll still be warm, but not burn-your-mouth hot. Safety first!

9

Serve and enjoy!

Now comes the best part! Serve these scrumptious Mini Ham and Cheese Bites to your eager little ones (or yourself if you can't resist). These mini bites are perfect for lunchboxes or as party snacks. Enjoy!
