Indulge in the buttery, cheesy perfection of Crescent Cheese Rolls, a quick and easy appetizer or snack that's sure to please every palate. Made with flaky refrigerated crescent roll dough filled with a luscious blend of cream cheese, sharp cheddar, garlic, and a hint of parsley, these golden-brown delights are perfect for any occasion. The dough is rolled around the creamy filling, brushed with an irresistible egg wash for a beautifully crisp finish, and baked to perfection in just 12 minutes. Whether you're hosting a party, looking for a savory treat, or craving a cozy bite with your evening tea, these cheese-stuffed crescents hit the spot. Serve them warm and watch them disappear!
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and dried parsley. Mix until well blended and smooth.
Open the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 individual triangles as per the perforations.
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture onto the wide end of each dough triangle.
Carefully roll each triangle from the wide end to the narrow tip, encasing the cheese mixture. Pinch the edges slightly to seal the cheese and prevent any leaks during baking.
Place the rolled crescents seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced evenly apart.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash.
Brush the egg wash over the tops of the crescent rolls to give them a lovely golden finish when baked.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescents are puffed up and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute or two before serving. Enjoy warm!
