00:00One package of Hawaiian rolls,
00:0213 different possibilities.
00:03From quick dinners to decadent desserts,
00:05these recipes will make you see these sweet fluffy rolls
00:07in a whole new way.
00:08I'm starting with something I crave on about a monthly basis.
00:12You can turn Hawaiian rolls into cinnamon rolls.
00:15So you start by taking your whole sheet of Hawaiian rolls
00:19and cut them in half,
00:20but you wanna keep the tops and bottoms connected.
00:22And then you make your typical cinnamon roll filling,
00:25which of course is butter.
00:27You wanna make sure your butter's softened
00:28so it mixes easily.
00:29And then brown sugar, of course, cinnamon,
00:32and then just a little pinch of salt.
00:34Give that a good mix.
00:35You want it to look really well mixed.
00:38Okay, then you're gonna take most of this mixture
00:41and spread it on the bottom half of your rolls.
00:43Place your top buns on.
00:45All right, then grab a casserole dish
00:46and give it a little spray, just for insurance.
00:50Place your rolls right inside.
00:51And then you're gonna spread
00:53the remaining mixture on top.
00:55This is where it starts to get the gooey.
00:57All right, then this just goes into the oven,
00:59350 degrees for about 20 minutes.
01:01Frosting is a simple cream cheese frosting.
01:03Obviously, these are also smaller amounts.
01:06This is just 12 small cinnamon rolls.
01:07You could easily double or triple this recipe.
01:09So it's just a little cream cheese
01:11and a tablespoon of softened butter.
01:14And I'm gonna beat that together first,
01:16just to get it sort of head stark.
01:18And then in with a little pinch of salt,
01:20a splash of vanilla.
01:22And then we're gradually gonna add in some powdered sugar.
01:24This is gonna be pretty thick,
01:25but you're gonna wanna spread it on
01:27when the rolls are warm.
01:28Oh yeah.
01:30They've gotten a little sugary crust on there.
01:33The butter is nice and melted.
01:35And then while they're hot, I like to just spread.
01:38And then just let the heat kind of help you
01:41break out the napkins.
01:42Because breakfast is about to be served.
01:45That is an amazing, I don't know what is.
01:47I think the fun way to serve it
01:48is to kind of like pull it apart.
01:50And it's like the perfect bite
01:52as a cinnamon roll I've ever seen.
01:54It's not a cinnamon roll, but a cinnamon roll.
02:00Oh my God.
02:01I forgot how good these are.
02:03The way the butter seeps in there,
02:05it's toasty on the outside, but so gooey.
02:09It's like every bite is the center of a cinnamon roll.
02:12When it comes to hot dogs and sausage dogs,
02:15Hawaiian rolls make the perfect buns.
02:17First off, I like to just get them a little bit warm
02:20just because you don't want a hot hot dog in a cold roll.
02:24325, 350 for just about three to five minutes.
02:26Once they're warmed up slightly, take a knife
02:29and you're just gonna cut it about like halfway down.
02:32I'm doing sausage dogs.
02:34I've done hot dogs before.
02:35They're delicious,
02:35but I just thought sausage dogs sounded really fun.
02:38So you just get your smoked sausage
02:40and you cut it the size of your rolls.
02:42It's easy to build while they're all still connected
02:44and then you can separate them or you can separate them all
02:47ahead of time and cut them and then keep your hot dogs warm
02:49in a crock pot and then let everybody kind of build
02:51their own little hot dog sliders.
02:53I'm gonna do peppers and onions.
02:55Again, this is just a suggestion.
02:56You do whatever you want.
02:57I like mustard.
02:58Oh my God, these are so cute.
03:00Another great idea with this is you can keep them
03:02in the package and transport them to your party
03:05or your tailgate just like this.
03:07And then when you get there, it's easy to serve.
03:09You can simply pull them apart
03:11and just put it on a serving platter.
03:12Definitely a little something different
03:14than your typical sliders.
03:16I'm on purpose using the sweet ones
03:18because I like a little sweet and salty,
03:20but trust me with that.
03:21Salty, smoky sausage dog.
03:24It's gonna be delicious.
03:26Hawaiian rolls as hot dog buns.
03:29Genius.
03:30Did you know Hawaiian rolls can also be donuts?
03:33Yes, they can.
03:34And like the cinnamon rolls,
03:35it's the easiest way to make homemade donuts.
03:38You've seen me do the lemon cheesecake
03:39creme brulee ones before, but have you seen me make
03:42Boston cream pie donuts?
03:44Well, here we go.
03:45First step is to make these taste like fried donuts.
03:48You want to brush them all over with melted butter
03:52and then just place them on a sheet pan.
03:54And we're just gonna bake them
03:55for just like five minutes or so.
03:56I mean, once you realize that Hawaiian rolls can be donuts,
04:00there's so many creations.
04:01I've done apple cider version.
04:02You could also just do like a churro style.
04:05Possibilities are endless.
04:06Sometimes I feel like Hawaiian rolls are so expensive,
04:09but when you think of it as like,
04:10this is just a few ingredients for a dessert
04:12that then you can get it for under $10.
04:15Then it makes it not sound so bad.
04:16Then just into the oven for just about five to seven minutes.
04:19You want them to be toasty all over.
04:22So they hold up.
04:26GBD, golden brown and delicious.
04:28Well, toasty on top, that's what you want.
04:30I'm gonna take them off so they cool.
04:31And then for the cream in the cream pie,
04:35this is just vanilla pudding mix and cool whip.
04:37A little milk.
04:38What you have to do is you take your rolls
04:40that have been toasted
04:41and you're going to make a little hole in the side,
04:44but taking care not to go all the way through.
04:46Just enough to fit like the corner of a Ziploc bag
04:49or a piping bag in there.
04:50Then you've got to kind of get your finger in there
04:53to kind of open the inside up.
04:55Okay, and you want to let them cool off
04:57so that when you pipe the cream in there,
04:59that it doesn't just pour out.
05:01And you just pipe it in.
05:03I like to try to get it as full as possible.
05:05It holds more than you think.
05:06Okay, and that's what you got.
05:08It's gonna have that.
05:09What?
05:10The other bag.
05:11This?
05:12The other bag.
05:13Oh, oh, oh, hey.
05:16Oh Lord.
05:17All right, next, just take some chocolate chips.
05:20You're gonna get them good and melted.
05:21And then you give them the iconic Boston cream pie look.
05:26So we're just gonna dip the tops
05:28of each roll into the chocolate.
05:29And then set it back down on your tray
05:31because you've got to let them cool completely
05:33so that that chocolate kind of solidifies a little bit.
05:35So you can do that just by letting them sit
05:38at room temperature for about 20 to 30 minutes,
05:40or you can pop them in their fridge
05:42for like five to 10 minutes, which is what I'm gonna do.
05:45Are these not the cutest things you've ever seen?
05:47Somebody's got a hard job, and not somebody's me.
05:56Toasting the roll on the outside is key,
05:59because that mixed with all that creaminess,
06:02and then the soft inside of the roll,
06:04it's just a perfect bite.
06:05It may not be the exact same thing as a Boston cream donut,
06:08but it definitely satisfies the craving.
06:09And now I'm showing you that you can turn Hawaiian rolls
06:11into cheesy stuffed garlic bread.
06:14Even though we buy these,
06:15sometimes it's just a simple side to our dinners.
06:18Why not judge them up?
06:20So you wanna separate your rolls.
06:22Get a little paring knife and make a little slit in there.
06:25Again, not to go all the way through.
06:27Then you're gonna take a string cheese,
06:28and it just so happens that a half a string cheese
06:31fits perfectly into these rolls.
06:33Once you get your rolls all filled with the cheese,
06:35you wanna nestle them close together in your baking dish.
06:39So I'm gonna also do that
06:40in this cardboard that it comes with.
06:42You know, they're not fully sealed inside the roll,
06:45so they are gonna kind of ooze out a little bit,
06:47but if you kind of nestle them up to each other,
06:49they won't run so much.
06:50I'm just gonna set them into a baking dish, extra insurance.
06:54You don't just wanna put this directly in the oven,
06:57in the cardboard,
06:58because the butter might start to leak out into your oven.
07:01So I'm gonna make a little garlic butter
07:03to spread over them.
07:04I'm just gonna do this in the microwave,
07:06so I just got some butter here,
07:08and to that I'm gonna add in some fresh garlic,
07:10and as it melts in the microwave,
07:12it's going to infuse the butter with the garlic flavor.
07:15Okay, butter's melted.
07:17Stir in a little parsley for that iconic garlic bread look.
07:20And then we're just gonna generously
07:21spread this over our rolls.
07:23Final ingredient,
07:25a little sprinkle of grated parm on the top,
07:27and then these just go into the oven,
07:29350 degrees for about 15 minutes.
07:31You want them to get toasty,
07:33but you also want that cheese stick to melt in the middle.
07:35Oh yeah, I almost forgot about my garlic bread.
07:38Look at that.
07:42That's why you have to nestle them close together.
07:45That's a cheese pull.
07:47Does the Hawaiian roll make the best garlic bread treat?
07:50When you're serving your garlic bread,
07:51you get this cheesy surprise?
07:54I think so.
07:56Almost forgot about this hack,
07:58but I will be bringing it back on the next Succa Sunday.
08:05So 10 out of 10.
08:06If you're not using your Hawaiian rolls for French toast,
08:08what are you doing?
08:10What's great about this is they're already sweetened a little bit,
08:12so you are getting that sweet note from the get-go.
08:15But this is not just any other French toast.
08:18It's beautiful because when you cook it,
08:20it gets crispy on all the sides,
08:22so you have the perfect ratio of toastiness to gooeyness inside.
08:26You know how to make French toast.
08:27I've got my mixture of eggs, milk, some cinnamon, a little vanilla,
08:31and we're going to drop our Hawaiian rolls right in,
08:34and you want to give them a good soaking,
08:36although they soak faster than some other bread you might use.
08:40But you can also help it absorb by poking some holes in the bottom
08:46with a toothpick or a fork,
08:48and that's going to help some of this custard get inside
08:52because you're working with a really thick piece of bread.
08:54Let that soak and let's fry it up.
08:57Because that bread is so thick and the custard is going to get all the way in,
09:00you're going to have to cook this kind of low and slow
09:02and for a little bit of a longer time so that all the egg mixture does cook through on the
09:06inside.
09:06My kids only like Hawaiian roll sandwiches in their lunch boxes,
09:10so at the end of the week, sometimes I might have a few left over.
09:13This is the perfect Saturday morning breakfast.
09:16And then you're going to cook it on all the sides.
09:19Yes, that's what we want right there.
09:21Toasty, and it's still really fluffy.
09:24It's just a fun way to serve French toast.
09:27Cute little fluffy French toast packages.
09:30I mean, how often do you have Hawaiian rolls for breakfast?
09:32This, my friends, is how you serve up Hawaiian rolls as French toast.
09:36And see, at this point, you could go in and pipe a filling in if you want.
09:40I think they're going to be perfect just as is.
09:45Mmm.
09:47The sweetness that's naturally in the bread, that's perfect.
09:5110 out of 10, we'll be doing this again.
09:54Guy Fieri says that Hawaiian rolls are the secret ingredient to the best stuffing.
09:59With Thanksgiving coming up, I thought I had to try it.
10:02So I've taken a whole pack of Hawaiian rolls and just cubed it up.
10:07I sauteed the stuffing essentials.
10:09Lots of butter with celery and onion.
10:11This concept will work with whatever your favorite stuffing recipe is.
10:14It's just subbing some or all of the bread with some Hawaiian rolls.
10:18Okay, make sure all the bread cubes are coated
10:21so that all of that buttery flavor gets into all of that bread.
10:25This recipe that I'm using is an all recipes top-rated stuffing recipe,
10:29and it calls for soft bread.
10:31And you can see why.
10:32It acts as a sponge and soaks up all of that flavor.
10:35Recipe says this is it.
10:36I'm going to add in a little bit of chicken stock, too.
10:38And just into a dish.
10:40I'm going to cover it with foil and let it bake.
10:42This might be the trick you need this Thanksgiving.
10:45Check out our stuffing.
10:47I'm really impressed with how moist it stayed,
10:50even though we didn't add very much moisture at all.
10:52These Hawaiian rolls can really hold it in.
10:55We'll just do a little sample to see if Guy Fieri was right.
10:59Guy Fieri.
11:01Our Hawaiian roll is the secret to delicious stuffing.
11:07That's better than I thought it was going to be.
11:09Secretly, I was a little worried that it was going to be too sweet,
11:13but it's not.
11:13It's very subtle.
11:15It's almost not there because there's so much going on with the butter and the herbs.
11:22I'm usually a dressing fan over a stuffing fan because it's more moist.
11:26This is probably, quite possibly, the most moist stuffing I've ever had.
11:32And that's saying a lot.
11:34This Thanksgiving, this is a hack you're going to want to try.
11:38Oh, good.
11:39I've got another dessert recipe for you.
11:42Turning the Hawaiian rolls into bread pudding.
11:44Sort of like the French toast.
11:46It just makes sense because bread pudding is meant to be sweet,
11:50and you're already starting with a slightly sweeter roll than just regular bread.
11:54So you just want to take your rolls, cut them in half lengthwise,
11:57and then cut them into cubes.
11:59Add them to a bowl.
12:00Because fall is in the air, I'm doing a cinnamon apple bread pudding
12:03because that just sounds delicious.
12:04So I've got some chopped up apple in here as well.
12:07And I'm also adding in some raisins because it's just classic in bread pudding.
12:11This is an all recipes recipe I'm using called Grandma's Apple Bread Pudding.
12:15So I've got a little mixture over here of just milk and brown sugar.
12:18I'm going to add in some butter.
12:21And then I'm going to pour this directly over our bread cubes.
12:24Because bread pudding, you always want the bread to soak
12:27so that it kind of turns into that pudding.
12:30All right, and then just toss that well.
12:32And then I've got some eggs.
12:33I'm going to whisk together with a little cinnamon and vanilla and add that in.
12:37Remember, I don't want you to focus too much on the recipe.
12:39These are meant to just inspire you on ways to use your Hawaiian oils.
12:43Other ways, get creative in the kitchen.
12:46The egg mixture just kind of helps hold it all together.
12:49Because it's such a soft bread, a lot of bread pudding recipes call for you to soak it overnight.
12:53We don't have to soak this overnight because that bread is so soft.
12:56It's absorbing everything so quickly.
12:58And because we don't have to soak it, it can go straight into the oven.
13:01It's going in at 350 for about 40 to 50 minutes.
13:03Bread pudding smelling delicious, feeling very fallish.
13:08You want it to have a slight jiggle.
13:10It's going to settle nicely.
13:12Recipe has it served with a vanilla sauce.
13:14I think just to really accentuate the fall, I'm going caramel apple.
13:19So I'm going to hit it with some caramel sauce.
13:22Bread pudding is something that you can totally make in advance.
13:24I rarely serve it piping hot out of the oven like this.
13:27I even like it slightly chilled.
13:30Look at that.
13:30Apples have gotten nice and tender.
13:37Not only is that the flavors of fall, but it is also like a big warm hug from your grandmother.
13:43Maybe it's your southern grandmother since it's bread pudding.
13:45But it's a no-brainer to use Hawaiian rolls for bread in your next bread pudding.
13:50It just makes sense.
13:51Not a slider, but a sub.
13:54Turning Hawaiian rolls into the perfect vessel for a meatball sub.
13:58I've got some party-sized meatballs cooking in some sauce.
14:01That's all you need.
14:02You could make your own homemade meatballs, but this is a time where this is a party treat.
14:06I say take the shortcut, and this can become like a five-ingredient appetizer.
14:10You're going to take your roll and cut a hole in the top big enough to fit your meatball.
14:16Take out the bread, and we can make delicious breadcrumbs.
14:21Save it for your Thanksgiving stuffing.
14:23You want to be sure not to go all the way to the bottom.
14:25And then you might have to stretch it out a little bit so the meatball fits.
14:28I'm going to brush these inside and out with garlic butter.
14:31I'm going to use the same garlic butter we did with the garlic bread.
14:33That way we kind of get a base flavor going in these Hawaiian rolls.
14:36And then I'm just going to toast this up just a little bit in the oven for about five minutes.
14:41Now we start filling them up.
14:42I'm going to put just a little bit of cheese down on the bottom.
14:45Then we take a meatball and fill each little designated section.
14:49You want to be sure the meatball also has enough little sauce on it.
14:52This is one of those sliders that are going to require napkins.
14:56But really this, to me, while it would make a delicious hearty party app,
15:00this is a fast and easy dinner and a fun dinner.
15:03All right, and then top with more cheese.
15:04Now you just pop them into the oven until they're all melty and gooey.
15:07Check out meatball subs.
15:10And now it is a pull apart party.
15:13Whether it's a tailgate or a Tuesday night at home,
15:16the meatball subs and the Hawaiian roll is the solution.
15:26This is one of those recipes that's even better than I thought it was going to be.
15:31And I knew it was going to be good.
15:32Just in time for your holiday mornings.
15:34Next up, turning your Hawaiian rolls into breakfast casseroles.
15:39You've got all kinds of breakfast casseroles that call for different types of bread,
15:42usually just a regular sourdough.
15:44But adding that Hawaiian roll is going to add just that slight undertone of sweetness,
15:49kind of how I did for the stuffing.
15:51But also kind of like when you take your biscuit,
15:54and maybe you've got like a bacon egg and cheese biscuit,
15:56but you like putting jelly or honey on it.
15:59You know, you're getting like that sweet and salty.
16:01That's what we're doing.
16:02So we're making a bacon egg and cheese strata,
16:04which is just a fancy name for a breakfast casserole with layers.
16:08So I've got my Hawaiian rolls cut up and I've toasted them a little bit
16:14because they are so soft.
16:16This way they take a little longer to absorb those ingredients.
16:20Go in with most of the bread, then add on some bacon, some cheese,
16:24and kind of work all those ingredients in between every bread cube.
16:28And some green onions.
16:29Add on some more.
16:30I've got a little milk, half and half, and some eggs in here.
16:33I'm just going to get those a little mix.
16:35Season it with some salt and pepper.
16:37And just pour your egg mixture over your bread mixture.
16:41Let that sink in and then a little more of your toppings.
16:44And add on just a little bit of grated parm into the oven.
16:48Per usual, 350 for about half an hour.
16:50Check out that strata.
16:52Your girl's getting a little full, okay?
16:55But you've got to trust me.
16:56Just from the smell alone, this right here is a perfect breakfast.
17:00It's not loaded with egg.
17:02Sometimes you want the meat and cheese and bread and less egg.
17:06And this is that.
17:07I love how the bread cubes got so toasty.
17:09I guess I can muster up another bite.
17:14It's giving McGriddle vibes a little bit with the sweet and salty.
17:18Not only is this a great holiday breakfast,
17:20but I think it's the perfect thing for like a wedding shower brunch
17:23because it's just that little bit of something different.
17:25But it satisfies all the cravings.
17:27That's another A+.
17:28Got some leftover Hawaiian rolls.
17:30Why not make croutons?
17:31The perfect addition to your salads.
17:33We're going to make these in the air fryer.
17:35I've never done it with Hawaiian rolls.
17:37All about using these now when I'm doing something kind of extra salty.
17:41Since you do have that sweet component.
17:44Then you just toss them with melted butter.
17:46You could also do oil.
17:47You could do a combination.
17:49I'm doing some seasoned salt and garlic powder.
17:51Make sure everything is tossed really well.
17:53And then this goes into your air fryer at 400 degrees.
17:56And it just takes about five to seven minutes.
17:59You want to give it a little shake about halfway through.
18:02Some air fryers are more powerful than others.
18:04You might can go down to like 375 to cook these.
18:07Toasty golden.
18:08I can tell they've absorbed the buttery flavor in there.
18:15So I like my crouton.
18:18Crunchy on the outside, soft in the middle.
18:21It's the perfect addition to your salad.
18:23But also truthfully makes a delicious snack.
18:26I can't show you all the recipes with a Hawaiian roll without including the slider.
18:31The most popular use of the Hawaiian roll.
18:35However, I can give you a new recipe for it.
18:37We are making buffalo chicken sliders.
18:40Now you may say, I've had that before.
18:43But have you?
18:44Have you had it like this?
18:45It's just going to be this year's way of serving up our favorite party dip.
18:49Especially for football season.
18:51I've got cooked chicken.
18:52We are not using a store bought pre-made dip here.
18:54We're doing our own.
18:55So it is very similar to just how you make your buffalo chicken dip,
18:59but without the cream cheese.
19:00Add in your buffalo sauce.
19:02I mean, just the hot sauce.
19:03Ranch dressing.
19:04And then a little bit of ranch seasoning.
19:06No matter how many years buffalo chicken has been popular,
19:10it never gets old for some reason.
19:12But I think we still all serve it up the same way as a dip.
19:16Then take your rolls, cut them in half.
19:18I'm going to sprinkle some cheese on the bottom.
19:20A slider can be any kind of sandwich, okay?
19:23It's just a smaller sandwich is what a slider is.
19:26So the creativity is endless.
19:29I've done sweet sliders, savory.
19:31I've done breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
19:33These are great for parties, obviously,
19:35because they can be assembled ahead of time
19:37and then just baked when the time comes.
19:39So you could totally do this the day before.
19:41Okay, then I'm going to put them on a baking sheet.
19:43And I'm going to brush the tops.
19:45See, you haven't done it like this before.
19:46But let's go all the way.
19:47So we're going to brush the tops with some melted butter.
19:50And we're going to add some more flavor to the Hawaiian roll.
19:52I'm going to sprinkle the rest of the ranch seasoning on the tops.
19:56Because buffalo chicken and ranch dressing.
19:59You can wrap it up and save it for your party.
20:01We're going straight in.
20:02It just goes into the oven for just about 10 minutes.
20:05Look at that.
20:07That is a delicious buffalo chicken situation.
20:10The use we know and love the most, Hawaiian rolls as sliders.
20:14That's a touchdown.
20:15Next up is the Hawaiian roll burger.
20:17With sliders, you're just making mini sandwiches.
20:19For this, I'm making one giant burger and turning it into a lot of little burgers.
20:24I've just got some ground beef here.
20:26And I'm adding in some onion soup mix because that's just easy.
20:30I've done tons of different versions of this, but I think it's so much easier to make one
20:35big patty versus a bunch of little sliders.
20:38Find a pan that's the same size or slightly bigger than your rolls.
20:42And we're going to make one big patty inside the pan.
20:45It will shrink a little bit as it cooks.
20:48And it doesn't have to be perfect.
20:49It can hang over the bun a little bit.
20:51You just want to be sure that every bit of bun has some burger on it.
20:55I think when people think of burger sliders,
20:57they think of making tiny burger patties and building little burgers.
21:02This is so much easier.
21:04As you can see, it's slightly bigger.
21:06Then I think it's going to be perfect.
21:07I'm going to add a little cracked pepper to the top.
21:09All right, then you just go into the oven, 350 degrees.
21:12It doesn't take that long to cook, obviously, because it is so thin.
21:15And then I like to crank up the broiler for just like a minute for the last minute or two,
21:21just so it gets a little charred on the outside.
21:24So when my big burger patty comes out, I'm just going to transfer it to my Hawaiian real sheets,
21:30top it with cheese, and put it back in just to help melt the cheese.
21:33And then we are going simplicity at its finest.
21:35I've got that French onion flavor from the onion soup mix.
21:38So I'm just going with a little mayonnaise and pickles.
21:42Then we have this perfect burger, and it'll go straight on to my bread.
21:51So when you got it, you got it.
21:53See how you knew that it was a little bigger when it went in, but look at that.
21:57It is dang near perfect.
21:59Okay, back into the oven for just a minute or so, just about one to two minutes.
22:04We have arrived.
22:05This is a crowd-pleasing burger because you don't have to, you know, worry about fussy toppings,
22:09but it's got also kind of grown-up flavors.
22:11So it'll appeal to the adults and the kids.
22:14Just going to take our bun tops, spread a little mayo on them.
22:18As full as I am, this is making my mouth water.
22:21The easiest way to make 12 burgers at one time right here.
22:25This is one you're not going to want to do a pull-apart situation because it's one big patty,
22:28and you can't really rip it apart.
22:30So this is one you're going to want to cut.
22:31That being said, it cuts through very easily because it is just one patty to go through.
22:36When the family wants burgers for dinner, this is a fast and easy and cheaper way
22:41than getting everyone something from the drive-through.
22:43It's a hearty slider.
22:45Juicy, cheesy.
22:52It's subtle, yet very nostalgic.
22:54And then just keeping those toppings simple with just some cheese.
22:57A little sweet from the bun matches with the savory that's in the rest of the burger.
23:02Cooking it on the sheet pan, it keeps all the flavor in the meat.
23:07Genius.
23:08For my final trick, Hawaiian rolls make the perfect, cutest mini grilled cheeses.
23:13With soup season in full effect, a little mini Hawaiian roll grilled cheese is going to be
23:20the best accompaniment.
23:21So you just take your Hawaiian rolls and slice them into thirds.
23:25Then you just kind of assembly line it.
23:28Get some sliced cheddar or American.
23:30Build your sandwich.
23:31I mean, you know how to make a grilled cheese, right?
23:35I just love when you slice them, they look like little mini slices of bread.
23:39See?
23:39It's like a little sandwich.
23:41And I mean, look, we made 10 grilled cheeses in like two minutes.
23:45I'm going to spread butter on one half and I'll butter the other half when they're in the pan.
23:50And you could probably put a hundred of these on your Blackstone.
23:53Going in, buttered side down.
23:55I guess you could always just build them in the skillet.
23:57And now you butter the top side.
23:59Just cook it like you normally would your grilled cheeses.
24:02Lower and slower so all the cheese melts at the same time the bread toast.
24:06That is a pan full of the cutest grilled cheeses I've ever seen.
24:09And the perfect little accompaniment to your soup.
24:12I love that it's toasty golden on the outside.
24:15Gooey and cheesy on the inside.
24:17And ready for its dunk.
24:22And the whole thing is just fun.
24:25What's your favorite thing to do with Hawaiian rolls?
24:26Why don't you teach me a new recipe?
24:28I'm stuffed.
