Step-by-Step Instructions for Hawaiian Roll Grilled Cheese
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter with oregano, garlic powder, and parsley to create a creamy garlic herb butter.
  3. Slice the King’s Hawaiian Rolls into thirds and spread a layer of garlic herb butter on each slice.
  4. Assemble your mini grilled cheese sandwiches by placing half of the buttered roll portions on a baking sheet, adding cheese on top, and capping with the remaining buttered roll portions.
  5. Bake the sandwiches in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even crispness.
  6. Remove the sandwiches from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving warm with tomato soup.
