Description

Cheesy Garlic Butter Rollups are warm, flaky crescent rolls filled with garlic butter and melty cheese, perfect as a side dish, appetizer, or snack.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 can crescent roll dough
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Melt the butter in a small bowl and stir in garlic and herbs.
  3. Unroll the crescent dough on a flat surface.
  4. Brush dough evenly with the garlic butter mixture.
  5. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the buttered dough.
  6. Roll up each triangle tightly, or roll the sheet and slice into pinwheels.
  7. Place rollups on a parchment-lined or lightly greased baking sheet, seam side down.
  8. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
  9. Serve warm, optionally with a dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Use a mix of cheeses for extra flavor—try mozzarella, cheddar, and parmesan.
  • Add cooked bacon or pepperoni before rolling for a meaty twist.
  • Red pepper flakes can be added for heat.
  • Great with marinara, ranch, or garlic dip on the side.
  • Roll tightly to prevent unrolling during baking.
