96 Ritz Original crackers (about 3 sleeves)
1/2 lb. thinly sliced deli ham
1/3 lb. thinly sliced Swiss cheese
5 tbsp. unsalted butter
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. poppy seeds
1 tsp. dried onion flakes

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Place 24 Ritz crackers in the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish, flat side down. Place another 24 Ritz crackers in the bottom of another 13x9-inch baking dish. Tear the ham gently with your hands to create tiny strips (they do not need to be perfect) and lay a lightly folded slice on each Ritz cracker.

Cut the cheese into 1-inch pieces and place one piece of cheese on top of the ham. Top each mini sandwich with another Ritz cracker, rounded side up.

Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, about 45 seconds. Gently whisk in the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and salt.

Pour the butter mixture evenly over the mini sandwiches, dividing the mixture evenly between the two pans. Sprinkle the poppy seeds and the dried onion flakes evenly over the top.

Bake at 350°F for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops of the Ritz crackers are lightly golden brown.

Transfer to a serving platter and serve while warm.

Makes 48 party sandwiches.

Note: Try using sharp Cheddar or Pepper Jack, too!
