Ingredients
- 1 (12-count) package Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (or other good melting cheese like Provolone, Muenster, Gruyere)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
- Prep the Rolls: Slice the entire block of Hawaiian sweet rolls horizontally, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom, keeping the halves connected.
- Butter the Rolls: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and optional garlic powder. Brush generously over the cut sides of both the top and bottom halves of the rolls.
- Add the Cheese: Place the bottom half of the buttered rolls into a large skillet over medium-low heat or onto a baking sheet. Evenly distribute the shredded cheese over the bottom half.
- Assemble: Carefully place the top buttered half of the rolls over the cheese-covered bottom half and gently press down.
- Cook (Stovetop Method): Cover the skillet with a lid or another heavy pan to gently press down on the rolls. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
- Cook (Oven Method): If baking (on a baking sheet), bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes, or until rolls are golden and cheese is melted. Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra crispness, watching carefully.
- Slice and Serve: Remove from heat and, using a serrated knife, slice along the original roll lines to separate into individual mini grilled cheeses. Serve immediately.
