Hot Ham and Cheese Rolls
King’s Hawaiian rolls layered with deli ham and American cheese, brushed with butter, and baked until golden.
Ingredients
- 9 King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls cut from a 12-count pack
- 12 slices deli ham thinly sliced from the deli counter
- 4 slices American cheese from the deli counter if possible
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Without separating the individual rolls, slice the connected block of 9 rolls in half horizontally and place the bottom half in a baking dish.
- Layer ham evenly over the bottom half, then place cheese slices over the ham.
- Place the top half of the rolls back on.
- Stir Dijon into the melted butter if using, then brush the butter evenly over the tops of the rolls.
- Bake uncovered at 350°F for 20 minutes, until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted.
- Cut into individual sandwiches and serve warm.
Notes
Brush the butter over the tops instead of pouring it in one spot so every roll browns evenly. Assemble the ham and cheese up to a day ahead, then add butter right before baking. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days and reheat in a 350°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes for the best texture.
