No reviews

A quick, sweet-savory twist on grilled cheese using soft Hawaiian rolls, melted cheddar and American cheese, and a hint of buttery crispness.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 Hawaiian sweet rolls, sliced in half horizontally
  • 8 slices cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices American cheese
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (optional, for drizzling)
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Butter one side of each roll half. Place 1 slice cheddar and ½ slice American cheese between two buttered halves to make 8 sandwiches.
  2. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Cook sandwiches for 2–3 minutes per side, pressing gently, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
  3. Serve warm, optionally drizzled with maple syrup and sprinkled with a pinch of salt.

Notes

  • For extra decadence, add a smear of Mayonnaise instead of butter for a crispier crust.
  • Pair with pickles or a simple green salad for balance.
