Add the cheeses and cook the sauce for 10 minutes. Stir in the cream, then quickly mix in the egg yolks.
Cover the sauce with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours until it sets.
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
Place a lightly toasted slice of bread on a baking sheet and spread with a little Mornay sauce. Add the ham slices, more Mornay sauce and a little more Gruyère. Top with another slice of bread and press down gently. Spread a couple of tablespoons of Mornay sauce on top.
Bake until golden brown.
