Method
 

How to Make Mini Grilled Cheese Hawaiian Rolls
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your rolls cook evenly and the cheese melts to perfection.
  2. Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally without separating them. Keep them together like a book for easy filling and slicing later!
  3. Spread softened butter on the cut sides and sprinkle with garlic powder if desired.
  4. Layer shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on the bottom half of the rolls.
  5. Place the top half of the rolls back on to form a sandwich.
  6. Wrap the whole sandwich tightly in aluminum foil.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese melts.
  8. Unwrap and bake for an additional 5 minutes to crisp the exterior.
  9. Let cool slightly, slice, and serve while warm.
