Carolina Ham & Cheese Melt image

These delicious sandwiches make a simple lunch special or a quick dinner seem not so rushed. Perfect for leftover holiday ham and turkey; or you can use deli sliced ham. This recipe was inspired by a beautiful cool spring evening and left over Easter ham. Our 4 year old loved his - I used a mayo and mustard combo for his. Goes well with a fresh garden salad, oven fries and a nice bottle of California White Bordeaux.

CAROLINA DELIGHTS



Carolina Delights image

This recipe comes from my grandomther. Growing up my mom always made these cookies for me and my sister. I am doing the same for my 2 girls. Every bite reminds me of my childhood. :) Other names for these cookies are: no bake cookies, preacher cookies

Provided by Mommyof2girls_40169

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 15m

Yield 30-40 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups sugar
4 tablespoons cocoa
1/2 cup margarine (I prefer country crock)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 cups oatmeal (use the one minute oatmeal)

Steps:

  • Combine sugar, cocoa, margarine and milk in saucepan over medium heat (I always go a notch over medium-but do not do med/high or it will burn).
  • Once it comes to a rapid boil, boil for 3 minutes EXACTLY.
  • Remove from heat and add peanut butter and oatmeal (SEE Tip#2).
  • Spoon drop on wax paper and let cool.
  • Store in airtight container.
  • Tip#1: have all ingredients measured out before you start.
  • Tip#2: sometimes weather can effect the outcome. It may require less or more oatmeal -- add oatmeal a little at a time till you get the right consistency-not to runny and not too thick.

Tips:

  • To make sure the ham is evenly cooked, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 140°F (60°C).
  • For a crispier crust, brush the ham with melted butter or olive oil before baking.
  • If you don't have any brown sugar on hand, you can substitute honey or maple syrup.
  • For a sweeter glaze, add more brown sugar or honey to taste.
  • If you're short on time, you can skip the glaze altogether and just bake the ham.
  • Serve the ham with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, and cornbread.
