Ham and Swiss Waffles with Mustard Sour Cream

In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of the warm milk, the sugar and yeast. Let stand for 10 minutes or until foamy. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine eggs, melted butter and the remaining 11/4 cups warm milk.

Place flour in a large bowl; make a well in the center. Add egg mixture and yeast mixture to the flour. Stir until just moistened (batter should be slightly lumpy). Cover with plastic wrap; let stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Gently fold in ham and cheese.

Following manufacturer's directions, add batter to a preheated, well-greased waffle maker; cook until golden and crisp. When done, remove waffle with a fork. Keep warm in a 300° oven while cooking remaining waffles.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together sour cream and mustard. Serve waffles topped with sour cream mixture, honey and chives.
