# What You'll Need:
→ Bread
01 -
12 King's Hawaiian Savory Butter Rolls
→ Cheese
02 -
12 mozzarella string cheese sticks
03 -
120 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
04 -
30 grams shredded Parmesan cheese
→ Butter Mixture
05 -
113 grams unsalted butter, melted
06 -
3 grams minced garlic (about 1 teaspoon)
07 -
1 gram dried parsley (about 1 teaspoon)
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Set the oven to 400°F and position the rack in the middle.
02 -
Arrange the rolls snugly in a greased baking dish. Cut two slits horizontally on top of each roll without slicing through the bottom to create pockets.
03 -
Cut each mozzarella string cheese stick into 4 equal pieces and insert one piece into each slit on the rolls.
04 -
Combine melted butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, and shredded Parmesan cheese in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
05 -
Brush the tops of the rolls generously with the garlic butter mixture, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over each roll.
06 -
Bake rolls for 10 to 12 minutes until the cheese topping is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown. Monitor closely to prevent burning.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Avoid cutting through the bottom of the rolls to keep the string cheese from oozing out during baking.
02 -
For deeper flavor, lightly toast the garlic in melted butter before mixing in the Parmesan.
03 -
Store leftovers at room temperature in an airtight container for up to two days; reheat in oven or toaster oven to restore crispiness.
