Ingredients

Scale

Rolls and Filling

  • 1 package Hawaiian Sweet Rolls (12 count)
  • 18 slices thin deli ham
  • 12 slices Swiss cheese

Butter Sauce

  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1/2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp dried minced onion
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Optional Toppings

  • Parmesan cheese, to taste
  • Dried parsley, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it is ready for baking the sliders.
  2. Prepare Baking Pan: Cover a 9×13 inch baking pan with aluminum foil and spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  3. Cut Rolls: Remove the entire package of Hawaiian sweet rolls in one slab. Slice the entire slab in half lengthwise, creating a top and bottom half for layering.
  4. Assemble Bottom Layer: Place the bottom half of the rolls slab into the foil-lined baking pan, making sure it fits snugly.
  5. Add Ham and Cheese Layers: Layer half of the deli ham slices evenly over the bottom rolls, then place all the Swiss cheese slices on top. Follow by adding the remaining ham slices as the final layer before the top rolls.
  6. Top the Sliders: Place the top half of the rolls slab over the layered ham and cheese, covering the sandwich stack completely.
  7. Prepare Butter Sauce: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the stick of butter. Whisk in yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, dried minced onion, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  8. Pour Sauce Over Sliders: Evenly drizzle the butter mixture over the top of the rolls, ensuring the sauce seeps down into the layers for maximum flavor.
  9. Let Sliders Rest: Cover the baking pan with foil and allow the sliders to sit for 5 to 10 minutes so the flavors meld and rolls absorb some of the buttery sauce.
  10. Bake Covered: Place the covered pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes to warm through and slightly melt the cheese.
  11. Uncover and Finish Baking: Remove the foil and bake the sliders for an additional 5 minutes to allow the tops to brown slightly and the sauce to fully absorb.
  12. Add Optional Toppings and Serve: Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and dried parsley on top if desired, then slice into individual sliders and serve warm.

Notes

  • Using Hawaiian sweet rolls is key for the distinct sweet and soft texture of these sliders.
  • Cutting the entire slab of rolls in half maintains the sandwiches intact for easier assembly and slicing.
  • The butter sauce mixture can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator before use.
  • Optionally, you can add other condiments like poppy seeds on top for additional texture and flavor.
  • These sliders are best served warm, fresh out of the oven.
  • To reheat leftovers, wrap them in foil and warm in a 300°F oven for 10-15 minutes.
