If you'd prefer, after slicing along the perforated edges, slice again in half. These make great party appetizers and tasty bites!

Refrigerate - Allow the sandwiches to cool completely. Wrap in aluminum foil or parchment paper and refrigerate up to three days.
These also freeze well. Freeze in a single layer, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, then aluminum foil. Label and freeze up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
