Easy Party Sandwiches

My aunts, uncles and cousins gathered last weekend to celebrate Christmas. My mom brought this dish and the recipe has been repeatedly requested, so I thought I would share. One important thing, when it says butter, it means the real thing, margarine is just too watery for this. These are great on game day, or for a potluck, or just an easy supper.

Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
3 tablespoons poppy seeds
1 onion, grated
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons prepared Dijon-style mustard
2 (12 ounce) packages white party rolls (Kings Hawaiian rolls are really good for these, too)
1/2 pound sliced cooked ham
5 ounces sliced Swiss cheese

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a pan, mix together butter, poppy seeds, onion, Worcestershire sauce and prepared Dijon-style mustard and bring to a boil, remove from heat. Slice rolls in half horizontally and set aside tops. Leave rolls connected in a sheet. Top with ham and Swiss cheese. Replace tops. Arrange rolls in a single layer in a medium baking dish. Pour butter mixture evenly over the tops. Bake in the preheated oven 10 to 12 minutes, until rolls are lightly browned and cheese is melted. Cut apart and serve.
