Cheesy Hawaiian Garlic Rolls (Printer-Friendly)
Soft Hawaiian rolls filled with garlic butter and melted mozzarella topped with parmesan cheese.
# What You’ll Need:
→ Bread
01 -
12 King's Hawaiian savory butter rolls
→ Cheese
02 -
12 mozzarella string cheese sticks
03 -
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
04 -
½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
→ Butter Mixture
05 -
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
06 -
3 cloves garlic, minced
07 -
1 tablespoon dried parsley
# Steps to Make This:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Position the oven rack in the center for even baking.
02 -
Arrange the twelve rolls close together in a greased baking dish. Using a sharp knife, cut two slits into the top of each roll without slicing through the bottom to form pockets for the cheese.
03 -
Cut each mozzarella string cheese stick into four equal pieces. Insert one piece into each slit of the rolls to create a gooey cheese surprise inside.
04 -
Combine the melted butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, and shredded Parmesan cheese in a bowl. Stir thoroughly to blend flavors evenly.
05 -
Brush the tops of the rolls generously with the garlic butter mixture. Evenly sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the tops to form a cheesy crust.
06 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden. Monitor closely near the end to prevent burning.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Avoid slicing through the bottom of the rolls to prevent cheese leakage during baking.
02 -
To deepen garlic flavor, toast garlic lightly in butter before mixing in Parmesan.
03 -
Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days; reheat in oven or toaster oven for best texture.
