Cheesy Garlic Crescent Rolls are the perfect, quick, and savory treat to accompany any meal. With buttery garlic flavor and a gooey cheese filling, these crescent rolls are irresistible. They’re ideal as a side dish, appetizer, or snack. Best of all, they come together in just minutes using store-bought crescent dough!

Equipment:

Baking sheet
Small bowl
Pastry brush
Cheese grater

Ingredients:

1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheddar for variation)
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Prepare the Garlic Butter:
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Roll Out the Dough:
- Open the can of crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
Add Cheese:
- Place about 2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella (or your preferred cheese) near the wide end of each crescent triangle. Gently roll the dough, starting from the wide end, and tuck the point underneath.
Brush with Garlic Butter:
- Place the rolled crescents on the prepared baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, generously brush each crescent roll with the garlic butter mixture.
Add Parmesan and Bake:
- If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan over the top of the rolls for extra cheesy flavor.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Garnish and Serve:
- Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and brush them with any remaining garlic butter.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and serve warm.

Tips:

Cheese Variety: Use different cheeses like mozzarella, cheddar, or a blend of Italian cheeses for different flavors.
Extra Flavor: Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or Italian seasoning to the garlic butter for a kick of spice or herbiness.
Make Ahead: You can assemble the crescent rolls and store them in the fridge for a few hours before baking, making them a great make-ahead side dish.

These Cheesy Garlic Crescent Rolls are a delicious and easy addition to any meal. The buttery garlic topping and gooey melted cheese make them a crowd-pleasing favorite. Whether you’re serving them alongside pasta, soup, or as a standalone snack, these rolls are bound to disappear quickly!
