Bread and Cheese:
- 12 Hawaiian rolls
- 6 slices cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Heat oven to 350°F, preparing a baking dish for the sliders.
- Sauté ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until thoroughly browned and fully cooked, then drain any accumulated fat.
- Carefully slice Hawaiian rolls horizontally, maintaining the connected roll structure, and gently separate into bottom and top halves.
- Arrange bottom roll section in the baking dish, creating a unified base for the sliders.
- Distribute the seasoned beef evenly across the bottom roll layer, ensuring complete coverage.
- Layer cheese slices precisely over the beef, creating a melty foundation.
- Position the top roll section over the cheese layer, aligning carefully with the bottom.
- Generously brush melted butter across the roll tops, creating a golden sheen.
- Optional: Sprinkle sesame seeds over the buttered surface for added texture and visual appeal.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until cheese melts completely and rolls turn golden brown.
- Remove from oven, allow to cool briefly, then slice into individual sliders for serving.
- Serve warm for optimal flavor and texture.
Notes
- Choose lean ground beef to reduce excess grease and create a healthier slider option.
- Try different cheese varieties like pepper jack or smoked cheddar for unique flavor profiles.
- For a gluten-free version, swap Hawaiian rolls with gluten-free slider buns or lettuce wraps.
