Haven't seen a dish like this in years. What do they call these sandwiches? Special name?

I don't know what they are called but I have a recipe in my "to try" pile

that is similar. It omits the cream cheese and the onion flakes. I thought it would be good for a pot luck lunch.

 
The old one I have used for years are called party rolls - a little different

It starts with a tray of those little family style finger rolls. You just dump them out connected then cut in half and put the bottom back in the pan. Brush/drizzle half of the butter mixture which consists of melted butter, mustard, dried onion flakes, and poppy seed (off the top of my head). Top with thinly sliced (I prefer it shaved into pieces) ham then swiss cheese. Place the top on the rolls. Pour remaining butter mixture over the top. Now here is the great part - you can freeze or refrigerate them at this point. I recommend at least the day before to allow the butter mixture to really soak in and flavor it all the way through. Then you bake covered for a while then uncovered. If you do it just right you will get the rolls a little crispy on the outsides! Slice the rolls along the lines (which actually this is easier done while cold before baking) and serve.

 
Made a version of these today. Oh la la! So simple. Comfort food deliciousness!

This is the recipe I used:

Hawaiian Ham Sandwiches

1 12 count package Kings Hawaiian Rolls
1/2 cup butter melted
1/2 tsp ground mustard (I used dijon)
2 tsp onion flakes
1 tsp worcheshire sauce
1 package Swiss cheese (I used 1/2 package, slices cut in half)
12-16 oz thin sliced ham

Put ham and cheese on sliced rolls

Mix all other ingredients and spoon over sandwiches. Let set overnight or several hours

Bake on 350 for 15 min before serving.
