Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350˚F. Butter the bottom of a rimmed baking sheet.

- Cut the dinner rolls in half. Place the bottom halves on your buttered baking sheet and layer with sliced cheese.
- Spread the ground beef mixture evenly over the cheese using the back of a spatula.
- Top the beef with 6 oz of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Place the top halves of the rolls, cut-side down, over the beef.
- Brush the tops with 2 Tbsp of melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tops are golden brown.
