Ingredients

Scale

Garlic Herb Butter

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

Sandwich

  • King’s Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls, 12 rolls
  • Sliced cheddar cheese, enough to cover each mini sandwich

Instructions

  1. Prepare Garlic Herb Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter with oregano, garlic powder, and parsley. Mix thoroughly until all the herbs and spices are evenly blended into the butter.
  2. Prepare Rolls: Separate each King’s Hawaiian sweet roll and cut each roll into thirds horizontally to create mini sandwich slices. Spread a generous amount of the garlic herb butter mixture on each slice to add flavor and moisture.
  3. Assemble Sandwiches: Place a slice of cheddar cheese between two buttered roll slices to form mini grilled cheese sandwiches. Arrange the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
  4. Bake Sandwiches: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the mini grilled cheese sandwiches for about 20-25 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and the rolls to toast lightly. Flip the sandwiches halfway through baking for even toasting on both sides.
  5. Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm. Optionally, pair these mini grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup for a classic and comforting meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute cheddar cheese with other melty cheeses like mozzarella or provolone for different flavors.
  • For added crunch, sprinkle some grated parmesan on top before baking.
  • Store any leftover sandwiches in an airtight container and reheat in the oven to maintain crispness.
  • These mini sandwiches make excellent party appetizers or kids’ snacks.
  • Adjust the garlic herb butter seasoning to your taste preference for a stronger or milder herb flavor.
