Place garlic butter and shredded cheese over crescent dough. You’ll love this tasty treat

In the heart of the Midwest, where the fields stretch as far as the eye can see, simple pleasures often bring the most joy. These cheesy garlic crescent rolls are a testament to that. With just three ingredients, they capture the essence of home-cooked comfort. This recipe is a nod to the days when my grandmother would whip up something quick yet delightful for unexpected guests. The aroma of garlic and cheese wafting through the kitchen is enough to bring back fond memories of family gatherings and cozy evenings.

These cheesy garlic crescent rolls pair wonderfully with a hearty bowl of homemade tomato soup or a crisp garden salad. They also make a delightful accompaniment to a Sunday roast or a simple pasta dish. For a touch of sweetness, serve them alongside a fruit compote or a dollop of apple butter.

Servings: 8 rolls

1 can of crescent roll dough
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons garlic butter, melted

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.

Brush each triangle with melted garlic butter.

Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese onto each triangle.

Roll up each triangle, starting from the wide end, and place them on a baking sheet.

Brush the tops with more garlic butter for extra flavor.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.

Let them cool slightly before serving.

For a little kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cheese before rolling. You can also experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella or pepper jack for a unique twist. If you have fresh herbs on hand, a sprinkle of chopped parsley or chives can add a fresh note. For a more indulgent version, try adding a slice of ham or turkey before rolling up the dough.
