Ritz Cracker Party Sandwiches

This Ritz Cracker Party Sandwich is a beloved appetizer that transforms simple pantry staples into a decadent, savory treat. These sandwiches feature layers of deli ham and melted Swiss cheese tucked inside soft rolls, which are then glazed with a rich, buttery sauce seasoned with poppy seeds and baked until the tops are golden-brown and slightly crisp. Their uniform, pull-apart design makes them an ideal choice for tailgates, holiday parties, or any gathering where guests can easily grab a warm, cheesy bite.
