16 slices white bread, crusts removed<\/span><\/li>\n
1 pinch nutmegCroque Monsieur<\/span><\/li>\n
1 teaspoon kosher salt<\/span><\/li>\n
1\u20442 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese<\/span><\/li>\n
1\u20442 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper<\/span><\/li>\n
2 cups hot milk<\/span><\/li>\n
2 tablespoons unsalted butter<\/span><\/li>\n

<\/h4>\n
DIRECTIONS:<\/span><\/h4>\n
Step 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).<\/p>\n
Step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the flour all at once and stir with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes.<\/p>\n
Step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n
Slowly pour the hot milk into the butter-flour mixture, while whisking constantly. Continue cooking and whisking until the sauce thickens.<\/p>\n
Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n
Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the salt, pepper, nutmeg, 1\/2 cup grated Gruyere, and Parmesan cheese. Set the sauce aside.<\/p>\n
Step 5<\/strong><\/p>\n
Place the bread slices on 2 baking sheets and toast them in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Flip each slice and bake for an additional 2 minutes, until they are toasted.<\/p>\n
Step 6<\/strong><\/p>\n
Lightly brush half of the toasted bread slices with mustard. Place a slice of ham on each of these slices and sprinkle with half of the remaining Gruyere cheese. Top with another piece of toasted bread.<\/p>\n
Step 7<\/strong><\/p>\n
Spoon the cheese sauce generously over the top of the sandwiches. Sprinkle the remaining Gruyere cheese on top.<\/p>\n
Step 8<\/strong><\/p>\n
Bake the sandwiches for 5 minutes. Then, turn on the broiler and broil for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, or until the topping is bubbly and lightly browned.<\/p>\n
Step 9<\/strong><\/p>\n
Serve the sandwiches hot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
