Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich Ingredients

  • 12 Hawaiian rolls
  • 12 slices of ham
  • 12 slices of cheese (cheddar or Swiss recommended)

Topping

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the sandwiches.
  2. Prepare Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls horizontally, keeping them attached at the bottom so they hold together as a whole slab.
  3. Assemble Sandwiches: Layer each roll with a slice of ham and a slice of cheese, then close the tops back over the filling.
  4. Apply Butter: Brush the melted butter generously over the tops of the sandwich rolls to add flavor and promote browning during baking.
  5. Bake: Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown.
  6. Serve Warm: Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then separate the rolls and serve warm for the best taste experience.

Notes

  • You can use any sliced cheese you prefer; Swiss or cheddar work especially well with ham.
  • For a sweeter touch, add a sprinkle of brown sugar or honey to the melted butter before brushing.
  • These sandwiches are perfect for parties or game day and can be easily doubled for larger crowds.
  • Store leftovers tightly wrapped in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven for best texture.
