Steps:
- Split each roll, and layer with the mozzarella and prosciutto.
- Spread the top slices with the fig jam, then close up to form sandwiches.
- Lightly butter the outside of each sandwich.
- Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or panini press over med-high heat.
- Place the sandwiches in the pan, working in two batches depending on the size of the pan.
- Press the sandwiches or close the grill and brown, turning once or twice, until the bread is crisp and the cheese is melted; **you can press the sandwiches by weighting them with something heavy-such as a skillet or wide-bottomed saucepan.
- Though the rolls start off as round, once pressed they are considerably flatter and can easily be turned, if careful.
- Serve right away, cut on the diagonal.

Steps:
- Spread the fig preserves onto 4 slices of bread.
- Cut the Brie into 8 long, thin slices.
- Lay 2 slices of Brie over the preserves. (I have also used creme de brie since I don't really care for the rind of Brie. If you go this route you can just spread the creme de Brie over the other slices of bread.).
- Arrange the prosciutto over the Brie.
- Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread.
- Spread half of the butter over the tops of the sandwiches and invert onto a hot skillet or pan.
- Spread the remaining butter on the other side of the sandwiches.
- Cook on the stove or in the oven, turning the sandwiches over once or twice, until the bread is golden brown and the Brie is melted.
- Cut in half to serve.
