Cheese Sandwich Souffle
- 8 slices homemade-style white bread, 3 to 4 inches square, crusts removed
- 1/4 pound thinly sliced cheese (Muenster, provolone, fontina or Gruyere)
- 2 ounces prosciutto or boiled ham, thinly sliced, optional
- 3 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Lightly butter an 8-inch square baking dish and arrange 4 slices of the bread flat on the bottom.
- Cover each with equal amounts of cheese and ham, if desired.
- Top with the remaining bread.
- Beat the eggs lightly in a small bowl and pour in the milk.
- Season with the salt and blend well.
- Pour over the sandwiches, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the sandwiches, uncovered, until lightly browned around the edges and set in the center, 40 to 45 minutes.
- Serve hot.
