Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 package crescent roll dough
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
Cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Garnish
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is hot and ready for baking the rollups.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and lay it flat on a baking sheet to provide a base for the toppings.
- Mix Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter with garlic powder, salt, and dried parsley; mix thoroughly to create a flavorful spread.
- Brush Butter: Generously brush the garlic butter mixture evenly over the entire surface of the crescent dough for maximum flavor.
- Add Cheese: Evenly sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese across the buttered dough to ensure every bite is cheesy.
- Roll and Slice: Carefully roll up the dough tightly from one end, then slice the rolled dough into individual rolls to make bite-sized portions.
- Bake: Place the sliced rollups onto the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until they turn golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from oven and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the hot rollups before serving to add color and freshness.
Notes
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
- These rollups can be made ahead and baked just before serving.
- Use fresh garlic minced instead of garlic powder for a more intense garlic flavor.
- If you prefer a different cheese, provolone or cheddar can be substituted.
- Serve with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for dipping.
