Ingredients
For the Filling:
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese blend of your choice)
- 1 tube refrigerated crescent roll dough (or pizza dough)
For the Garlic Butter Topping:
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional but delicious!)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Beef Filling
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and onion until the meat is browned and the onion is soft, about 6–8 minutes.
Drain any excess fat.
Add garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir well, then remove from heat.
Mix in the shredded cheese until melted and combined. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. Assemble the Rollups
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly flour a surface and roll out the crescent or pizza dough into a rectangle.
Spread the beef and cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving about ½ inch border.
Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log.
Slice into 1 to 1½-inch pieces and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Make the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and Parmesan (if using).
Brush generously over each rollup.
4. Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
Brush with any remaining garlic butter right after baking for an extra burst of flavor.
Serve and Enjoy
Serve warm with dipping sauces like:
- Ketchup or spicy mayo
- Garlic aioli
- Cheese sauce or ranch dressing
These Garlic Butter Cheeseburger Rollups are perfect as appetizers, snacks, or even a quick dinner the whole family will love!
Tips for Success
- For a smoky twist, add crisp bacon bits to the filling.
- Use pepper jack or mozzarella cheese for a different flavor profile.
- Leftovers? Reheat in an air fryer for a crispy, just-baked texture.
