Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and prepare a baking tray by either lining it with baking paper or lightly greasing it to prevent sticking.
2
Using a sharp knife, carefully make a slit on the top of each par-baked roll, being cautious not to cut all the way through—this will create a pocket for the cocktail frankfurters.
3
Gently insert one cocktail frankfurter into each slit of the rolls, arranging them on the baking tray as you go.
4
Sprinkle a generous amount of grated cheese over the top of each roll, ensuring that the cheese covers the frankfurters.
5
Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the rolls are golden brown.
6
Once done, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Accompany with bowls of tomato sauce and mustard for dipping. Enjoy your delicious Cheesy Mini Hot Dog Sliders!
