Yield Serves 12 children (makes 32 triangles)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
16 slices firm white sandwich bread
8 thin slices boiled ham (1/4 lb)
8 thin slices Swiss cheese (1/4 lb)
Special Equipment
a large square or rectangular electric waffle iron (not a Belgian waffle iron)

Steps:

  • Preheat waffle iron on high until just beginning to smoke. Reduce heat to moderate and brush generously with some butter.
  • Spread butter on 1 side of 8 bread slices and turn slices over. Top 4 slices with 1 slice ham and 1 slice cheese, folding in any overhang, then top with remaining 4 buttered bread slices, buttered sides up. Cook sandwiches in batches (number of batches will depend on size of your waffle maker) until bread is golden and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes.
  • Assemble and cook 4 more sandwiches in same manner.
  • Just before serving, cut each sandwich into 4 triangles.
