Wonder Omelet Sandwich Recipe

Serves 8

4 to 6 tablespoons butter, at room temperature, plus 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted

16 slices Wonder® bread

8 slices cheddar, American, or Swiss cheese

8 thin slices cooked ham

6 eggs

3 cups milk

1/2 teaspoon dry mustard

Salt to taste

1 cup crushed cornflakes or potato chips

Lightly butter one side of each slice of bread. Top 8 slices of buttered bread with a slice of cheese and a slice of ham. Top with a second slice of bread, buttered side down. Arrange the sandwiches in a greased 12 by 18-inch open roasting pan or 11 1/2 by 17-inch jelly-roll pan.

Whisk together the eggs, milk, mustard and salt, and pour slowly over the sandwiches. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat the oven to 350F. Mix together the cornflake crumbs and melted butter; sprinkle over the top of the sandwiches.

Bake uncovered for 1 hour; or until golden brown.

The story behind the sensation.

"This is great for big eaters because it's substantial but easy to make. It's also perfect for brunches, and it's easy to serve since you prepare it the night before. Your guests will be asking you for the recipe."

- Sue Ross, Casa Grande, Arizona
