Description

These Cheesy Garlic Butter Rollups are a deliciously easy appetizer or snack made with crescent roll dough, gooey mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese, all brushed with a flavorful garlic butter mixture and baked to golden perfection. Perfect for parties or cozy nights in!


Ingredients

Rollups

  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or any melty cheese you adore)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Garlic Butter Topping

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Garnish

  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Extra Parmesan cheese


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure the rollups bake evenly and don’t stick.
  2. Prepare dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles, arranging them on your workspace ready to be filled.
  3. Add cheese: Sprinkle each triangle with 1-2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese for a rich, melty interior.
  4. Roll dough: Roll each triangle starting from the wide end towards the tip, then place them seam side down onto the prepared baking sheet to prevent unrolling during baking.
  5. Make garlic butter: In a bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and salt. Brush this mixture generously over each rollup to infuse them with flavor.
  6. Bake: Bake the rollups for 10-12 minutes until they turn golden brown and the cheese inside is bubbling deliciously.
  7. Finish topping: After baking, brush any remaining garlic butter over the rollups and garnish with chopped fresh parsley and extra Parmesan cheese for added aroma and taste.
  8. Serve: Allow the rollups to cool slightly before serving warm so the cheese settles and the rollups are safe to eat.

Notes

  • Feel free to use any melty cheese you prefer, such as cheddar or gouda.
  • Make sure to brush the garlic butter generously for maximum flavor.
  • These rollups are best served fresh but can be reheated in the oven to restore crispness.
  • For a spicy kick, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the garlic butter.
  • To make this gluten-free, substitute crescent roll dough with a gluten-free pastry dough.
