Ingredients
Scale
Crescent Rolls
- 1 package store-bought Crescent Roll Dough
Cheese Filling
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Additional Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (chopped parsley or chives)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and help the rolls bake evenly.
- Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently separate the dough into triangles if it is not pre-cut.
- Add the Cheese Filling: Spoon a generous amount of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese near the wide end of each triangle. Sprinkle garlic powder and the chopped fresh herbs over the cheese for added flavor.
- Roll and Shape: Starting from the wide end, carefully roll each triangle toward the pointed end, enclosing the cheese inside. Shape each roll into a crescent and place them evenly spaced on the baking sheet.
- Brush and Bake: Brush the tops of each crescent roll with melted butter to encourage a golden, glossy crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the rolls are puffed up and golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet to set. Serve warm to enjoy the melted cheese inside at its best.
Notes
- For an extra kick, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes with the herbs.
- You can substitute the fresh herbs with dried Italian seasoning if fresh herbs are not available.
- These crescent rolls are best enjoyed warm but can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in the oven for freshness.
- Use refrigerated crescent dough for convenience; homemade dough can be used but will alter prep time.
