Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 48 Ritz crackers
- 8 slices roast beef cut in thirds
- 8 slices provolone cheese cut in thirds
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish sauce
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons poppy seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet (with a rim) with parchment paper or aluminum foil. If you use foil, spray it with nonstick spray as the cheese will stick. I like to use the parchment of a silicone baking mat. You can also use a 9x13 baking dish.
- Place 24 crackers in an even layer. You can place the flat side down to keep them from wobbling.
- On top of each cracker, place a piece of roast beef and a piece of cheese. Top with another cracker to make 24 mini sandwiches.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, horseradish sauce, salt, and garlic powder. Stir to mix.
- Pour over the cracker sandwiches evenly to coat them.
- Sprinkle with the poppy seeds.
- Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Remove and enjoy!
Notes
- Spray the foil or parchment paper with nonstick spray. The cheese will stick and the sandwiches will break apart otherwise.
- Use a rimmed baking sheet or 9x13 dish. The butter sauce can run and you don't want it dripping in your oven.
- Place crackers flat-side down so they don't wobble. This creates a stable base for stacking.
- Cut deli meat and cheese into thirds or fold them oven fo they fit in the cracker.
- Use a spoon or brush to distribute the butter sauce evenly over all the sandwiches.
- Watch them during the last few minutes of baking. Ovens vary and you don't want them to burn.
- Serve warm right out of the oven. The cheese is melty and the crackers are at their crispiest.
