- Split sandwich rolls in half lengthwise and set aside.
- Place peeled garlic cloves into food processor and pulse a few times to mince.
- Add softened butter, garlic powder, black pepper, and half of the cheese. Process mixture until smooth and fluffy.

- Sprinkle rolls with dried parsley.
- Cover and freeze until firm, then store in sealable freezer bags.
- When ready to bake, take out the number of frozen rolls you want to serve, and bake at 450°F for about 7-10 minutes until cheese is melted and lightly browned around the edges.
