How To Make Ritz Cracker Party Sandwiches:
Step 1: Build the Sandwiches
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lay out 24 Ritz crackers on a baking sheet. Top each with a piece of deli ham and a small slice of Swiss cheese. Then, place another Ritz cracker on top to form mini sandwiches.
Step 2: Mix the Glaze
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, poppy seeds, and dried minced onion until well blended.
Step 3: Add the Flavor
Brush or spoon the buttery glaze generously over the tops of the cracker sandwiches, making sure each one is coated for maximum flavor.
Step 4: Bake Until Golden
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese inside is perfectly melted. Remove and let cool slightly before serving.
Crispy, cheesy, and full of buttery flavor, these Ritz Cracker Party Sandwiches are the definition of easy entertaining. One batch is never enough—make extras because they disappear in seconds!
