Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich Ingredients

  • King’s Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls (quantity as needed)
  • Sliced cheddar cheese (enough to fill each mini sandwich, approx. 12 slices)

Garlic Herb Butter

  • 4 tbsp butter, softened
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tbsp parsley

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Garlic Herb Butter: In a small bowl, mix softened butter with oregano, garlic powder, and parsley until well combined, creating a flavorful garlic herb butter.
  2. Slice the Rolls: Cut King’s Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls individually, then slice each roll into thirds to create mini sandwich-sized pieces.
  3. Butter the Rolls: Spread the prepared garlic herb butter evenly on each sliced piece of the rolls to ensure a deliciously savory crust when baked.
  4. Assemble the Sandwiches: Place slices of cheddar cheese between two buttered roll pieces to create mini grilled cheese sandwiches. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
  5. Bake the Sandwiches: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the assembled sandwiches for about 20-25 minutes. Flip the sandwiches halfway through baking to ensure even melting and browning.
  6. Serve: Once golden brown and the cheese is melted, remove from the oven and serve warm. Optionally, pair with tomato soup for a comforting meal.

Notes

  • Use softened butter to ensure easy mixing with herbs and spices.
  • Flipping the sandwiches halfway helps achieve even crispiness on both sides.
  • This recipe works well as an appetizer or snack for parties and gatherings.
  • Can be prepared ahead by assembling sandwiches and refrigerating before baking.
  • Opt for sharp cheddar for a more intense cheese flavor.
