by

This stunning layer cake is perfect for special occasions or a fun family meal. It combines layers of soft bread, creamy fillings, and savory ham, topped with beautiful rose-shaped ham decorations.

Ingredients:

For the layers:

  • 8 slices of sandwich bread (crusts removed)
  • 250g (9 oz) of cooked ham (thinly sliced)
  • 200g (7 oz) shredded mozzarella or Swiss cheese
  • 1 cup of shredded lettuce or finely chopped parsley (optional for freshness)

For the creamy spread:

  • 200g (7 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For decoration:

  • 6-8 extra slices of ham (to make roses)
  • Fresh parsley or herbs for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the spread:
    In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Layer the cake:
    • On a serving plate, place one slice of bread. Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture.
    • Add a layer of ham and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.
    • Repeat the process (bread, spread, ham, cheese) until all bread slices are used, finishing with a bread slice on top.
  3. Decorate the top:
    • Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture over the top and sides of the cake to “frost” it.
    • Roll slices of ham into rose shapes and arrange them on top. Sprinkle fresh parsley or lettuce around for added flair.
  4. Chill and serve:
    Refrigerate the layered cake for at least 30 minutes to set. Slice carefully with a sharp knife and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Enjoy your savory masterpiece! 🥳 Perfect for parties or as a creative appetizer.
