Description

Festive and fun Christmas Tree Sandwiches made with layers of cheese, ham, and mayonnaise between soft slices of bread, perfect for holiday parties and kids’ snacks.


Ingredients

Scale

Bread

  • 16 slices crustless bread

Fillings

  • 8 slices cheese
  • 8 slices deli ham
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • Mustard (optional)


Instructions

  1. Spread Mayonnaise: Spread mayonnaise evenly over 8 slices of the crustless bread to add flavor and moisture.
  2. Add Cheese and Ham: Place one slice of cheese and one slice of deli ham on top of each mayonnaise-covered slice of bread.
  3. Apply Mustard and Top Bread: Spread mustard lightly over the ham if using, then cover each with another slice of bread to form sandwiches.
  4. Cut into Trees: Using a tree-shaped cookie cutter, cut 2 tree shapes from each sandwich to create festive mini sandwiches perfect for serving.

Notes

  • You can use bread with crust and remove it yourself; white bread can be substituted with wholegrain bread. Make sure to buy thinly sliced bread for best results.
  • Use any cheese you like such as cheddar, mozzarella, gouda, or edam for varied flavors.
  • If your ham slices are very thin, use 2 slices per sandwich to ensure a good meat layer.
  • Mustard is completely optional and can be omitted based on preference.
