Simple Ham and Swiss Sliders

12 King's Hawaiian sweet dinner rolls (I can't remember how many come in a package)
12-24 slices of Honey Ham
6 slices of Swiss Cheese
Mayo

Spread:
1 Tbsp Onion Powder
1 1/2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard (I used stone ground mustard and it is good!)
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 C melted butter
Poppy seeds

Preheat oven to 350. Cut the rolls in half. It is just easiest if you just leave them all connected and just cut through the whole thing. That is what I do. Then you have one top and one bottom. Put the bottom in a 9x13 dishware. Spread the desired amount of mayo on the bottom of the rolls. Layer your ham so it covers every part of the roll. I usually like to have two or more layers of ham on my sandwich. Then put 1 layer of swiss cheese on the sandwiches. Mix together the melted butter, onion powder, worcestershire sauce, and mustard. Then brush the sauce over the rolls generously. I use the whole sauce on my 12 rolls. Then sprinkle them with poppy seeds. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Split sandwiches and eat.

Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes

These were so yummy! I could have eaten them all!

2 1/2 lbs red potatoes (I think I also used Yukon Gold once)
1/2 C Chicken broth
3 cloves garlic
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 C butter
8 oz cream cheese

Place the potatoes, garlic broth, salt, and pepper into the pot. Close the lid and set to sealing. Cook on manual (high) pressure for 12 minutes. When it is done quick release the pressure. Add the butter and cream cheese and put the lid back on the pot for 3-5 more minutes. (DO NOT cook it, just let it melt the butter and cream cheese.) Mash the potatoes. Then eat them!

Mississippi Mud Brownies

Brownies:
1/3 C Coco Powder
1/2 C Oil
1/2 C Butter, softened
2 C Sugar
4 Eggs
2 tsp Vanilla extract
1 1/2 C Flour
1 tsp Salt
3 C Mini Marshmallows

Frosting:
1/2 C melted butter
1/3 C Coco Powder
1/3 C Evaporated Milk
1 tsp Vanilla extract
3-3 1/2 C Powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9x13 pan. In a large bowl, put in your coco powder, then pour your oil over the coco. Mix these two ingredients. Add softened butter and mix till smooth. Add sugar and mix about a minute. Add the eggs one at a time and mix in between each one. Add vanilla, flour, and salt. Stir to combine. Pour the batter in the greased pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Check with a toothpick. Remove the brownies from the oven and spread the marshmallows in a single layer on top. Put the pan back in the over for 2-3 minutes or until the mallows are puffed up. Remove the pan and let cool.

Frosting:
In a bowl, add melted butter, coco, milk, vanilla, and 2 C of the powdered sugar. Beat until smooth. Add more powdered sugar a cup or so at a time until you reach your desired frosting texture. Spread frosting over the cooled brownies.
