HoneyBaked Parisian Sandwich

  In a bowl stir together: 1 cup finely grated Gruyere 2 tablespoons sour cream 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 3/4 teaspoon raspberry or cranberry preserves Spread 1 tablespoon of the mixture evenly over 1 side of 8 slices of white bread. Over 4 slices of bread arrange 1 or 2 slices of HoneyBaked Ham or Turkey. Top with the remaining bread slices, spread side down. Remove the crusts with a sharp knife and spread the tops of the sandwiches lightly with butter. Invert the sandwiches into a large griddle or skillet and spread the tops with more butter. With a spatula, press down and grill the sandwiches over moderately high heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Turn them over and grill an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown on both sides. Transfer sandwiches to baking sheet. Sprinkle each sandwich with 1 tablespoon grated Gruyere. Broil under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese is just melted. Source: HoneyBaked Ham NOTES: Dec 2014 Yummy!
