# How to Make:
01 - In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Whisk in flour and cook 1-2 minutes until bubbling but not browned. Slowly add milk and cream while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Cook until thickened, approximately 3-4 minutes.
02 - Remove from heat and stir in cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and keep warm.
03 - In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Place cut sides of slider buns face-down and toast until golden, 1-2 minutes.
04 - Place bottom halves of toasted buns on a baking sheet. Layer each with one turkey slice, one tomato slice, and 1 tablespoon Mornay sauce. Top with half a bacon slice.
05 - Preheat broiler. Slide assembled bottoms under broiler for 2-3 minutes until sauce is bubbly and lightly golden.
06 - Remove from oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley and smoked paprika. Crown each slider with top brioche bun half. Serve immediately while warm.
