Ingredients
  

For the Sliders
  • 1 package (12 ounces) Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 1/2 cup horseradish sauce
  • 3/4 pound sliced deli ham
  • 6 slices Swiss cheese halved
For the Topping
  • 1/2 cup butter cubed
  • 2 tablespoons onion finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
  • 2 teaspoons poppy seeds
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Equipment

  • 9x9-in. baking pan
  • Small skillet

Method
 

  1. Without separating the rolls, cut rolls in half horizontally. Arrange bottom halves of rolls in a greased 9x9-in. baking pan. Spread cut side of roll bottoms with horseradish sauce. Layer with ham and cheese; replace top half of the rolls.
  2. In a small skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, 1-2 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients for the topping. Pour this mixture over the assembled rolls.
  3. Refrigerate the pan, covered, for several hours or overnight.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove the rolls from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
  5. Bake the sliders, covered, for 25 minutes. Then, bake uncovered until golden brown, about 5-10 minutes longer.
