Step-by-Step Instructions for Hawaiian Roll Grilled Cheese
  1. Prepare the Garlic Herb Butter by mixing ½ cup softened unsalted butter with 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon oregano, and 1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley.
  2. Cut each King’s Hawaiian roll into thirds, spreading a generous layer of prepared garlic herb butter on the cut sides.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the buttered rolls on a baking sheet. Sprinkle cheese on top.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crispiness.
  5. Let cool slightly before serving warm, ideally with tomato soup.
