Loved this -- jelly sandwich without the crust (and there is just something about a round sandwich!) :) Used white bread instead of brown bread. Thank you so much! :)

Lovely little way to serve up jam and butter on bread. Made for ZWT6.

Just like the sandwiches I use to get when I lived in England. Bread, butter and home made strawberry jam, how much better can it get? I used potato bread and recently made jam. Made for ZWT6 Voracious Vagabonds.
