Ingredients
Scale
Rollup Ingredients
- 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
Cheeses and Garnish
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking the rollups evenly.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough carefully and lay it flat on a baking sheet, ready for layering with the butter and cheese.
- Mix Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine melted butter, garlic powder, salt, and dried parsley to create a flavorful butter mixture.
- Brush Butter Mixture: Generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the entire surface of the dough to infuse it with rich flavor.
- Add Cheeses: Evenly sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the buttered dough for a cheesy topping.
- Roll and Slice: Firmly roll up the dough from one edge into a tight log and then slice it into individual rolls, approximately 1 to 1.5 inches thick.
- Bake Rollups: Arrange the sliced rolls on the baking sheet with some space between each, then bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the rollups are golden brown and bubbly.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the rollups from the oven and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over them for color and freshness before serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can use fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder in the butter mixture.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the butter mix.
- These rollups are best enjoyed warm right out of the oven; reheat gently if serving later.
- Store leftover rollups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
