Follow these simple steps to create your cheesy layered bread stack:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Slice each dinner roll in half horizontally, creating a top and bottom layer.
3. On the bottom half of each roll, place a few strips of string cheese. Stack them generously to ensure a gooey filling.
4. Replace the top half of the rolls, gently pressing down to secure the cheese inside.
5. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and sesame seeds. Brush this mixture over the tops of the stacked rolls.
6. Place the stacked rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
8. While the rolls are baking, prepare the sweet drizzle by combining the sweetened condensed milk with powdered sugar in a small bowl. Mix until smooth.
9. Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
10. Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk mixture generously over the top of the bread stack.
11. If desired, garnish with fresh fruit or berries for an extra pop of color and flavor.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure the cheese is evenly distributed between the layers for a consistent gooey texture.
• Don’t skip the sesame seeds—they add a delightful crunch and flavor.
• Adjust the sweetness of the drizzle by adding more or less powdered sugar to your taste.
• Serve warm for the best cheesy experience.

Easy Variations

• Try using different types of cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar, for varying flavors.
• Add a layer of caramelized onions or sautéed mushrooms for an extra savory element.
• Drizzle with chocolate sauce instead of sweetened condensed milk for a dessert twist.
• Incorporate herbs or spices in the butter mixture for added flavor.

What to Serve With It

This cheesy layered bread stack pairs perfectly with:

• A side of fresh fruit salad for a refreshing contrast.
• Vanilla ice cream for a decadent dessert experience.
• A cup of coffee or tea to complement the sweetness.
• Chocolate or caramel sauce for additional drizzling options.

Storage and Reheating

• Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the bread stack in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through.
