Main Ingredients
- 1 (12-ct) package Hawaiian Rolls
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup butter, melted
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 2 tsp minced garlic
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Prepare Rolls: Separate the Hawaiian rolls into individual pieces. Carefully make two cuts into each roll about two-thirds of the way down, being sure not to slice all the way through—this creates pockets for the filling.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the Italian seasoning and minced garlic. Stir well to blend the flavors.
- Apply Garlic Butter: Generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the tops of the rolls, making sure to get some inside the cuts for maximum flavor.
- Add Cheese: Stuff the shredded mozzarella cheese into each of the cuts you made in the rolls, filling them evenly.
- Arrange and Bake: Place the prepared rolls onto the lined baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Finish with Garlic Butter: Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and brush any remaining garlic butter over the top for extra richness and flavor.
Notes
- Be careful not to cut all the way through the rolls to keep the cheese inside while baking.
- You can add chopped fresh parsley or a sprinkle of parmesan cheese on top for extra flavor.
- Serve warm immediately for the best taste and texture.
- For a spicy kick, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
- These rolls can be reheated in the oven at 350ºF for 5 minutes to restore freshness.
