Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- King’s Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls (quantity as needed, typically 12 rolls)
- Sliced cheddar cheese (enough to cover the rolls, about 12 slices)
Garlic Herb Butter
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 tablespoon parsley
Instructions
- Prepare Garlic Herb Butter: In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with oregano, garlic powder, and parsley until well combined to create a flavorful garlic herb butter spread.
- Slice Rolls: Cut the King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls individually, then slice each roll into thirds to create mini sandwich bases. Spread the garlic herb butter generously on each slice.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Place a slice of cheddar cheese between two buttered roll pieces to assemble the mini grilled cheese sandwiches. Arrange them on a baking sheet for baking.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the assembled sandwiches for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and melted cheese.
- Serve: Remove from oven and serve warm. These mini grilled cheese sandwiches are delicious on their own or perfect for dipping in your favorite tomato soup.
Notes
- Use soft butter for easy mixing and spreading.
- Flip sandwiches halfway during baking to achieve even melt and browning.
- For a crispier top, you can broil for an additional 1-2 minutes but watch closely to avoid burning.
- These sandwiches freeze well before baking; bake directly from frozen adding a few extra minutes to baking time.
- Customize with different cheese varieties like mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor profile.
