Kitchen Equipment Needed

Baking sheet
Parchment paper or non-stick baking mat
Small mixing bowl
Pastry brush
Measuring spoons
Grater (for cheese)

Ingredients

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat.
Prepare the Garlic Butter:
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and minced garlic. Stir until well combined.
Assemble the Crescent Rolls:
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles.
- Sprinkle a tablespoon of shredded mozzarella cheese onto the wide end of each triangle.
- Roll up each triangle, starting at the wide end and rolling towards the point.
- Place the rolled crescent rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure the point of the dough is tucked underneath to prevent unrolling during baking.
Brush with Garlic Butter:
- Use a pastry brush to generously brush the garlic butter over the top of each crescent roll.
- If desired, sprinkle the tops with chopped parsley for added color and flavor.
Bake the Rolls:
- Bake the crescent rolls in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve:
- Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
- These rolls are best served warm, while the cheese is still gooey and the garlic butter is fragrant.
