Ritz Cracker Party Sandwiches are an easy and crowd-pleasing appetizer. With just crackers, deli ham, Swiss cheese, and a buttery glaze, they bake into warm, savory bites perfect for any gathering. Their small size makes them ideal for snacking at parties, game nights, or holiday events.
To make them, layer ham and cheese between Ritz crackers to form mini sandwiches. Place them on a baking sheet and brush with a flavorful melted butter mixture that includes Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, poppy seeds, and dried onion. This topping adds a rich, tangy crunch.
Bake the sandwiches at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes, until golden and melty. They’re best served warm, but still tasty at room temperature for about an hour. You can also prep them ahead and bake when ready to serve.
Feel free to switch up the meats and cheeses — turkey, roast beef, or cheddar all work well. The buttery glaze seeps into the crackers, making each bite crispy, gooey, and addictive. It’s a simple recipe that delivers maximum flavor with minimal effort.
