I am always finding new ways to use Reynold’s Wrap aluminum foil and it gives that crisp clean cut for any size that you need! I love the thickness that Reynolds Wrap has and that it is oven safe. Wrapping these Monte Cristo Sandwiches helps keep in the warmth, melts the cheese and leaves the sandwich nice and flaky for the perfect combination! I love how it can keep the sandwiches warm until you are ready to unwrap them. Once you unwrap your warm Monte Cristo Sandwich your family will be thanking you!

You can leave the leftover sandwiches in the fridge and pop them in the oven wrapped in the foil to warm them up. I love how you can store them in the foil and easily warm them back up in the oven!

How Do You Make a Monte Cristo Sandwich?

Preheat oven to 400° F. Slice each croissant in half. Spread the inside of the bottom half of the croissant with 1 oz cream cheese. Top with one slice of swiss cheese, then one fourth of the ham and top with another slice of swiss cheese. Repeat for all 4 sandwiches.

Wrap each sandwich in Reynolds Wrap Aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet.

Bake for 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and the ham is heated through. Serve dusted with powdered sugar and dipped in raspberry jam.
