Ingredients
Scale
For the Filling
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
For the Dough
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
For the Garlic Butter Topping
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
- Cook Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Season with salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until the meat is no longer pink, stirring occasionally. Drain any excess fat to keep the filling from being greasy.
- Add Cheese: Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it melts and blends evenly with the beef mixture, creating a cheesy, flavorful filling.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles. These will serve as your pockets for the filling.
- Assemble Rollups: Place a spoonful of the beef and cheese mixture onto the wide end of each dough triangle. Carefully roll up each triangle starting from the wide end, tucking in the sides as you roll to fully encase the filling and prevent leakage during baking.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about one minute until fragrant but not browned. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley to add color and aroma.
- Brush Rollups: Place the assembled rollups on the prepared baking sheet. Generously brush each rollup with the garlic butter mixture, coating them well for that extra buttery, garlicky flavor and a beautiful golden finish.
- Bake: Bake the rollups in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through, ensuring the dough is flaky and the filling is hot.
- Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm as a delicious snack, appetizer, or party treat and enjoy!
Notes
- If you prefer, use mozzarella or a blend of cheeses instead of cheddar for a different flavor.
- To make cleanup easier, line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- These rollups can be made ahead of time and refrigerated before baking; just add a couple minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.
- For a spicier kick, add some red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the beef mixture.
- These rollups are best served fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
