Description
Cheesy Garlic Butter Rollups are soft, golden-brown rolls stuffed with gooey melted cheese and brushed with rich garlic butter. They make the perfect appetizer, snack, or side dish for pasta, soups, or salads.
Ingredients
- 1 sheet refrigerated pizza dough or crescent roll dough
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
- Unroll the pizza or crescent dough onto a lightly floured surface. Brush lightly with half of the garlic butter mixture.
- Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan evenly over the dough.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch pieces using a sharp knife.
- Place rollups cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
- Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
- Remove from oven and brush immediately with the remaining garlic butter. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve warm with marinara sauce or ranch for dipping.
Notes
- Use a mix of cheeses like cheddar, provolone, or Monterey Jack for extra flavor.
- Can be prepared ahead and refrigerated before baking for up to 24 hours.
- For a spicy version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter.
- Great for parties — double the batch for a crowd!
