1️⃣ The Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Without pulling the rolls apart, slice the entire slab of rolls in half horizontally so you have one giant “top” and one giant “bottom.”
2️⃣ The Layering: Place the bottom half in a greased 9×13 baking dish. Layer on half the cheese, then all of the ham, and top with the remaining cheese. (The cheese on both sides acts like “glue” to keep the sliders together!) 🧀
3️⃣ The Crown: Place the top half of the rolls back on.
4️⃣ The Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, mustard, Worcestershire, poppy seeds, and spices. 🥄
5️⃣ The Pour: Pour the glaze evenly over the rolls. Use a brush to make sure the sides are coated too. 🧈✨
6️⃣ The Soak (The Secret Step): If you have time, let the rolls sit for 10–15 minutes before baking. This lets the butter soak into the bread for that “melt-in-your-mouth” texture.
7️⃣ The Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 8–10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the tops are golden brown and slightly toasted.
💡 PRO TIPS:
The “Slider” Hack: Use a serrated bread knife to slice the rolls. It keeps the soft bread from squishing!
🔪Variations: Try these with turkey and provolone, or even leftover roast beef and cheddar!
Make-Ahead: You can assemble these the night before, keep them covered in the fridge, and just pop them in the oven when guests arrive. ❄️
