Ingredients
  

Main ingredients

  • 4 pieces Hawaiian rolls Sliced in half.
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese Freshly shredded for better melting.
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter Use real butter for best flavor.

Optional ingredients

  • 1 slice tomato Sliced thinly for topping.
  • 2 slices crispy bacon Cooked crunchy for topping.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half without cutting all the way through, keeping them hinged like a book.
  • Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and butter the insides of each roll.

Cooking

  • Place the bottom halves of the rolls on the skillet and fill generously with cheese. Press down slightly with the top halves.
  • Grill until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side, flipping carefully.
  • Once both sides are crispy and cheese is melted, remove from heat, slice, and serve hot.

Notes

Serve with strong coffee, vanilla ice cream, or fruit salad. For an open-faced version, grill the cut sides first and broil the cheese for a crisp top. Store leftovers wrapped in foil in the refrigerator.
