Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 12 Hawaiian slider rolls
- 1 cup (237 ml) mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup (113 g) butter, softened
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Cheese Topping:
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), ensuring the rack is positioned in the center for even heating.
- Arrange Hawaiian slider rolls compactly in a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, keeping them close together.
- Create strategic diagonal cuts approximately one-third deep into each roll’s surface, being careful not to slice completely through.
- Carefully nestle shredded Mozzarella cheese into the prepared slits, distributing evenly across the rolls.
- Melt butter in a mixing bowl, then incorporate garlic powder, finely chopped parsley, sea salt, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until thoroughly combined.
- Generously drizzle and brush the aromatic butter mixture over the rolls, ensuring complete and uniform coverage.
- Transfer the prepared dish to the preheated oven and bake for 9-11 minutes, watching for golden-brown edges and fully melted cheese.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes to allow cheese to set, then serve immediately while warm and fragrant.
Notes
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like sharp cheddar or Swiss for unique flavor profiles.
- Create a gluten-free version by using gluten-free Hawaiian rolls or making your own alternative bread base.
- Customize the herb blend by adding dried oregano or basil to enhance the aromatic complexity of the garlic butter.
- Prevent over-browning by tenting the rolls with aluminum foil if they start to darken too quickly during baking.
