Preparation

  2. In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sour cream, eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth.
Layering

  2. Repeat the layers with the remaining tortillas, ham, cheese, and cream cheese mixture, finishing with a generous layer of cheese on top.
Baking

  2. Let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting. Slice into small squares and garnish with green onions or parsley if desired.

Notes

These squares can be served warm or at room temperature. They make great appetizers cut into small squares, or you can serve them as a main dish alongside a simple salad. Adding some salsa or guacamole on the side can make them even more enjoyable. You can prepare them ahead of time and refrigerate before baking.
