Ingredients
Rolls
- 12-16 count Hawaiian rolls, each cut with 2 slits halfway through on top
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 1 stick salted butter, softened
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, washed thoroughly
- 2 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
Cheese
- 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Rolls: Place the Hawaiian rolls with two slits cut into the top, halfway through each roll, into a buttered 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking and allow easy cleanup.
- Stuff the Cheese: Fill each slit generously with shredded mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese to ensure a rich, gooey, and flavorful cheese center.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, whisk together the softened salted butter, chopped fresh parsley, and minced garlic until the ingredients are evenly combined to create a flavorful garlic parsley butter spread.
- Butter the Rolls: Evenly spread the garlic butter mixture over the cheese-stuffed rolls, covering the top to infuse the bread with a delicious garlicky aroma and taste.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C) and bake the rolls in the prepared baking dish for 9-11 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the rolls turn golden brown on top.
- Serve & Enjoy: Remove from the oven and serve the cheesy garlic bread warm for the best taste and texture, perfect as a party appetizer, snack, or side dish.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of garlic to suit your taste preferences for milder or stronger garlic flavor.
- Ensure the butter is softened for easy mixing and even spreading.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor.
- For extra crispiness, you can broil for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking, watching closely to avoid burning.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven to restore crispiness.
