Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the butter and mustard in a bowl and mash with a spoon; season with salt and pepper.
- Trim the ends off the baguette. Cut the bread on an angle into 12 slices, leaving the bottom of the loaf intact. (You can position chopsticks along the long sides of the bread to keep from cutting all the way through the loaf.) Transfer to the baking sheet.
- Brush all but 2 tablespoons of the mustard butter between the bread slices. Fold each piece of ham in half or into quarters, then stuff into every other slice in the bread, starting with the first slice. Stuff a slice of brie into each piece of ham. Brush or rub the top and sides of the bread with the remaining mustard butter.
- Bake until the edges of the ham are crisp and the cheese has melted, about 18 minutes. Pull apart or slice into individual sandwiches. Sprinkle with the cornichons and chives.

HAM AND DIJON CROISSANT SANDWICHES
Melt-in-your-mouth baked croissant sandwiches of thinly sliced ham, Swiss cheese, and a delicious buttery Dijon and poppy-seed sauce! Perfect for luncheons or entertaining, or packed into picnic lunches; great served warm, or at room temperature. Use as much ham and cheese as you like! Sandwiches are easily made up in advance and individually wrapped in foil, then refrigerated or frozen (use a freezer bag) for later use. Defrost overnight in the fridge, then bake as directed. Or, if frozen, bake at 300 F for about 1/2 hour until warm. If using mini-rolls, you may place them in a buttered baking dish and bake for the specified amount of time (no need to individually wrap)--I've also microwaved them. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Spread 1 tablespoon butter on each piece of baguette. Divide ham and cheese among bottom halves of bread. Sandwich with top halves. Serve with mustard and cornichons.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality ingredients. Look for artisanal breads and specialty mustards. Using the best ham you can find, such as prosciutto or Black Forest ham, will also make a big difference.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread. A baguette, croissant, or even a hearty rye bread can all be delicious options.
- If you don't have any Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard or even honey mustard. However, Dijon mustard will give you the most authentic flavor.
- To make the sandwich even more flavorful, you can add a slice of cheese, such as Gruyère or Swiss.
- If you're short on time, you can make the sandwich ahead of time and wrap it tightly in plastic wrap. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
