      Directions

      Preheat waffle iron on high until just beginning to smoke. Reduce heat to moderate and brush generously with some butter.

      Spread butter on 1 side of 8 bread slices and turn slices over. Top 4 slices with 1 slice ham and 1 slice cheese, folding in any overhang, then top with remaining 4 buttered bread slices, buttered sides up. Cook sandwiches in batches (number of batches will depend on size of your waffle maker) until bread is golden and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes.

      Assemble and cook 4 more sandwiches in same manner.

      Just before serving, cut each sandwich into 4 triangles.
