If it’s one snack that entices one and all, it’s Cheesy Garlic Butter Rollups. Soft and buttery, gooey with melted cheese, and filled with garlic-y goodness, they’re heaven on earth. The best part is that they require just a few ingredients and are ready in minutes. I love preparing these for movie nights with the family, parties, or even as a quick side for pasta.

What Are Cheesy Garlic Butter Rollups All About?

Rollups are warm golden rolls stuffed with gooey cheese, brushed with garlic butter, and baked until crisp on the outside and melty on the inside-perfect for either cheese dippers or filling. Every bite is a warm hug from buttery bread, sharp garlic, and stretchy cheese.

Ingredients

For the Rollups

1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (or pizza dough)
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the Garlic Butter

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the crescent roll or pizza dough and cut it into 8 rectangles or triangles.
On one side of each piece of dough, sprinkle cheese with mozzarella and cheddar.
Roll it up by picking up the end and gently rolling it into a log, thus gently sealing the cheese inside.
Make each roll sticky-side up on the baking sheet, then using a brush, spread melted butter mixture on each—one big dot for every few inches.
Place on the baking sheet, bake for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
Garnish with extra garlic butter and a lot of parsley before serving.

Storage Tips

Any leftovers remaining in the box can be put in an airtight plastic container at room temperature for a day and can be kept in a refrigerator for up to three days.
To retain crispiness, they can be warmed up in the oven or air fryer.

Serving Suggestions

Serve with marinara or ranch dressing for dipping.
Use soup or pasta as an additional serving of cheesiness for them.
It is always a good idea to bring them out as a party appetizer—believe you me, they won’t last very long!

Pro Tips & Variations

If you think it should contain more heat, feel free to change out the mozzarella for pepper jack.
For a little extra flavor, throw in a round or two of pepperoni or ham before rolling them up.
If you don’t have fresh garlic, then use garlic powder.

FAQs

1. Can I use homemade dough instead of canned?

Yes! Pizza dough works fine; just cut and roll the same way.

2. Can I prepare the Cheesy Garlic Butter Rollups ahead of time?

These can be made and then stored in the fridge for baking fresh just before serving.

3. Any other cheese you would recommend?

Mozzarella is the standard choice. However, cheddar, provolone, or any cheese blend will also perform beautifully.

4. Are these rollups kid-friendly?

Absolutely! Kids enjoy this cheesy, buttery flavor. Mild spice, however, is necessary if your kids refuse garlic.
