Cut bread slices into quarters. Arrange 1/2 of the bread evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared dish to cover completely. Mix together ham and Cheddar cheese in a medium bowl; spread over bread layer in the dish and top with remaining bread. Whisk together milk, eggs, and mustard in the same bowl until smooth; pour over bread to soak completely. Put cornflakes cereal into a separate bowl; drizzle with 1/4 cup melted butter and stir to coat. Spread over the top of casserole.

Tips You can refrigerate the unbaked casserole for a few hours (instead of 8 hours to overnight) if you're in a rush.
