Grilled Cheese Roll-Ups

Emma
A fun twist on the classic grilled cheese — these crispy, buttery roll-ups are golden on all sides, gooey in the center, and perfect for dipping into tomato soup or your favorite sauce.

Equipment

  • Rolling Pin
  • Cutting board
  • skillet or frying pan
  • Tongs
  • spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices sandwich bread
  • 8 slices cheese (American, cheddar, provolone, or mix)
  • 3 tbsp softened butter

Instructions
 

  • Lay out bread slices on a cutting board. Flatten each slice with a rolling pin until thin and pliable.
  • Place one slice of cheese on each piece of flattened bread. Roll tightly into a log, pressing the seam to seal.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat. Spread butter on the outside of each roll-up and place seam-side down in skillet.
  • Cook 2–3 minutes per side, turning with tongs, until golden brown all over and cheese is melted.
  • Serve warm with tomato soup, ketchup, or dipping sauce of choice. Slice into bite-sized pieces if desired.

Notes

✨ Variations: Make pizza roll-ups with sauce and pepperoni, jalapeño popper rolls with cream cheese and pickled jalapeños, or sweet dessert rolls with Nutella and cinnamon sugar.
💡 Tip: Roll tightly to avoid cheese leaks, and cook over medium heat so the bread toasts evenly while the cheese melts inside.
