Ah, cheesy garlic butter rollups — basically bite-sized, gooey, buttery clouds of happiness! Here’s a simple, foolproof recipe to make them:
Ingredients (makes about 8–10 rollups)
- 1 can of refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 rolls)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2–3 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, or a mix)
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)
- ½ teaspoon salt (optional, if your butter isn’t salted)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the garlic butter:
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. - Roll and fill:
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles.
- Place a small handful of shredded cheese at the wider end of each triangle.
- Roll the dough from the wide end to the point, forming little rolls.
- Brush with garlic butter:
Brush each roll generously with the garlic butter mixture. Reserve a little for after baking. - Bake:
Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown. - Finish with butter & parsley:
Remove from the oven and immediately brush with any leftover garlic butter. Sprinkle with parsley for a fresh, pretty touch. - Serve warm — perfect with marinara sauce or just on their own.
💡 Tip: You can add extras inside before rolling—like pepperoni, cooked bacon bits, or a sprinkle of parmesan for an extra flavor punch.
