Total Time: 22 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 rolls
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic and dried parsley. This will create a flavorful garlic butter mixture to brush on the crescent rolls.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean work surface. Carefully separate the dough into individual triangles along the perforated lines.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese onto the wide end of each crescent roll triangle.
- Starting from the wide end, roll each triangle towards the pointed end, making sure the cheese is enclosed within the dough. Gently curve the ends to create a crescent shape.
- Place the rolled crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each roll.
- Using a pastry brush, generously coat the top of each crescent roll with the garlic butter mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. The rolls will be hot, so handle with care.
- Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, cheesy, garlic-infused crescent rolls as a delicious side dish or appetizer.
Tips
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for fresh garlic instead of garlic powder. The aroma and taste of freshly minced garlic will elevate your rolls to a whole new level.
- Experiment with Cheese: While cheddar cheese is delicious, feel free to mix it up! Try using mozzarella for a gooier texture or add a sprinkle of Parmesan for an extra kick of flavor.
- Don’t Skip the Butter: Brushing the crescent rolls with the garlic butter mixture before baking is key. It not only adds flavor but also helps achieve that beautiful golden-brown color.
- Serve Immediately: These rolls are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven while the cheese is still gooey. If you have leftovers, reheat them in the oven for a few minutes to restore their crispiness.
- Pair with Dips: Elevate your cheesy rolls by serving them with marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or a garlic aioli for dipping. It adds an extra layer of flavor that will delight your guests!
