This Hawaiian Roll Grilled Cheese recipe offers a delightful twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich by using sweet and fluffy King’s Hawaiian rolls combined with a savory garlic herb butter and melted cheddar cheese. Perfectly baked until golden and crispy, these mini sandwiches are an irresistible appetizer or snack, especially when paired with warm tomato soup.

Ingredients

Scale

Rolls and Cheese

  • 12 pieces King’s Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls (cut individually, then each roll cut into thirds)
  • 12 slices cheddar cheese (or equivalent to fit mini rolls)

Garlic Herb Butter

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

Instructions

  1. Prepare Garlic Herb Butter: In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the softened butter with oregano, garlic powder, and parsley until well combined to create a flavorful garlic herb butter.
  2. Prepare Rolls: Cut each King’s Hawaiian roll into individual pieces, then slice each piece into thirds horizontally to form mini sandwich slices. Spread the garlic herb butter generously on each cut side of the roll slices.
  3. Assemble Sandwiches: Place a slice of cheddar cheese between two buttered roll slices to form mini grilled cheese sandwiches. Arrange them evenly on a baking sheet, ensuring space for even cooking.
  4. Bake the Sandwiches: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the assembled mini sandwiches for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping them halfway through the baking time to ensure both sides are golden and crispy and the cheese is melted.
  5. Serve: Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm. Optionally, pair the mini grilled cheese sandwiches with a side of tomato soup for dipping.

Notes

  • Ensure the butter is softened to room temperature to easily mix with herbs and spread smoothly.
  • Flipping the sandwiches halfway through baking ensures even browning and melting.
  • Use your favorite sharp or mild cheddar cheese depending on your taste preference.
  • These sandwiches can be made ahead and reheated in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce to the garlic herb butter.
