Ingredients
Crescent Rolls
- 8 ounce can refrigerated crescent rolls
Cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Garlic Butter
- 3 tablespoons homemade garlic butter
Instructions
- Prepare Crescent Dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent rolls and separate the dough into individual triangles to form the base for the filling.
- Apply Garlic Butter: Spread the homemade garlic butter evenly on top of each crescent roll triangle to infuse a rich, garlicky flavor.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the buttered surface of each triangle for a creamy, melty center.
- Roll Crescents: Starting from the wide end of each triangle, roll up the dough tightly and tuck the ends underneath to seal the filling inside, creating a crescent shape.
- Brush with Garlic Butter: Melt any remaining garlic butter in the microwave for a few seconds, then brush it generously on top of each rolled crescent to enhance the golden crust and flavor.
- Bake: Place the rolls on a baking sheet and bake in a 375°F (190°C) oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the crescents are puffed up and golden brown on top.
- Serve Warm: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while they are warm and the cheese inside is deliciously melted.
Notes
- For best results, use refrigerated crescent rolls directly; thawing is not necessary unless stated on the package.
- You can substitute mozzarella with other cheeses like cheddar or a blend for varied flavors.
- Homemade garlic butter can be made by mixing softened butter with minced garlic, parsley, and a pinch of salt.
- Serve these crescent rolls as an appetizer, snack, or alongside soups and salads.
