Have you ever had this yummy sandwich in a restaurant and wondered how they made it? Penny's version of this sandwich is simple and looks impressive. It's kind of like a donut and sandwich combined into one. The outside of the sandwich is light, sweet, and crispy. A nice contrast to the savory deli meats inside. The smeared jam...

The sandwich was delicious, but it was a little too difficult to make. I think I would have preferred a simpler recipe.

This sandwich was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if it was grilled instead of fried.

I'm not a big fan of Monte Cristo sandwiches, but I tried this recipe and was pleasantly surprised. The sandwich was really good, and the raspberry jam dipping sauce was the perfect addition.

This was a great recipe! I made it for my family and they loved it. The sandwiches were crispy and cheesy, and the dipping sauce was delicious.

The sandwich was good, but the raspberry jam dipping sauce was too runny. I think it would have been better if it was thicker and more like a glaze.

This sandwich was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with just the raspberry jam on the inside of the sandwich, and no dipping sauce.

This sandwich was amazing! I used sourdough bread instead of white bread, and it turned out perfectly. The raspberry jam dipping sauce was the perfect finishing touch.

I've made this Monte Cristo sandwich several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The sandwiches are crispy and golden brown on the outside, and the inside is filled with melted cheese and savory ham and turkey. I highly recommend this recipe!
