Glazed Ham Balls
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 35 min.
YIELD: 10 servings.
Meet the Cook: Over the years, I have found this recipe ideal for using leftovers from a baked ham. The pleasantly soft ham balls are glazed with a thick sauce that's slightly sweet with a hint of cloves. I frequently take them to church potlucks.
