Hanky Pankies are a classic, nostalgic Midwestern party appetizer made with a savory, cheesy ground meat mixture served hot on party rye bread.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 lb pork sausage (hot or sweet Italian)
• 1 lb Velveeta cheese (cubed or processed cheese)
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• ½ tsp garlic powder (or ½ tsp garlic salt)
• Pinch to ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
• 1 to 3 packages cocktail rye bread (or party rye / pumpernickel bread)

Instructions

1. Brown the Meat: In a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and pork sausage together until no longer pink (about 8 minutes).
2. Drain the Grease: Drain off the excess fat completely.
3. Melt the Cheese and Spices: Turn the heat down to low. Add the cubed Velveeta cheese, Worcestershire sauce, oregano, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. Stir continuously until the cheese is completely melted and smooth.
4. Assemble: Spoon roughly 1 tablespoon of the warm meat and cheese mixture onto each slice of cocktail rye bread. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
5. Bake: Bake at 350°F to 400°F for 8 to 15 minutes, or until the edges of the rye bread are toasted and the topping is hot and bubbly.
