Notes
- If you like your sliders extra buttery, add more melted butter before baking. Then baste the tops with butter when you remove from the oven.
- You can substitute the fresh mozzarella slices for other types of cheese like provolone or shredded mozzarella.
- If you add extra sauce to your slider rolls before cooking they may become soggy. If you like more sauce, consider putting a layer of cheese on the bread then sauce.
