Equipment
- Chef Knives
- Cutting Board
- Muffin pan
- Rotary Cheese Grater
Ingredients
- 3 tubes refrigerated crescent roll dough sheets
- ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 Tbsp garlic and herb seasoning
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Spray a muffin pan with cooking spray and set aside.
- Mix together softened butter, minced garlic, and garlic and herb seasoning in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Unroll crescent roll sheets. Use a rolling pin to roll each can of dough into a 12×16-inch rectangle.
- Spread garlic butter mixture over each sheet of dough. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese and grated parmesan cheese over each dough sheet.
- Starting on the long end of the rectangle, tightly roll it up into a log. Using a sharp knife, cut the log in half, making two 8-inch logs.
- Slice the short logs lengthwise to make 4 sections of dough. Repeat with the remaining dough sheets. You will have 12 equal strips of dough.
- Take one piece of dough with the layered side facing out and roll it tightly into a roll. Place the roll into a muffin pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Repeat with the remaining 11 sections of dough.
- Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.
- Cool on a wire cooling rack.
