Rollup Ingredients
- 1 package crescent roll dough
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the rollups evenly and achieve a golden crust.
- Prepare dough base: Unroll the crescent roll dough carefully onto a flat baking sheet, ensuring it is spread out evenly without tearing.
- Make garlic butter mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter with garlic powder, salt, and dried parsley to create a fragrant and flavorful spread.
- Brush dough: Generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the entire surface of the crescent dough to infuse every bite with savory goodness.
- Add cheese toppings: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheeses evenly over the buttered dough to ensure a cheesy, melty filling.
- Roll and slice: Roll the dough tightly into a log shape and slice it into individual rolls, about 1 to 1.5 inches thick, for easy serving.
- Bake: Position the sliced rolls on the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until the rolls turn golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
- Garnish and serve: Once baked, sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the warm rolls for a pop of color and fresh herb flavor, then serve immediately.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter for easier mixing and better coverage.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter mixture.
- These rollups are best served warm for gooey cheese and soft dough.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven for best texture retention.
- To make it gluten-free, substitute the crescent roll dough with a gluten-free dough alternative.
