Indulge your cravings with these Extra Cheesy Crescent Mozzarella Wedges, the ultimate appetizer or snack that’s oozing with flavor and gooey cheese. This quick and easy recipe features buttery crescent dough wrapped around melty mozzarella cheese sticks, then brushed with a garlic and Italian herb butter and topped with savory Parmesan. Baked to golden perfection in just 15 minutes, these wedges are crispy, flaky, and wonderfully cheesy. Serve them warm with marinara dipping sauce for a crowd-pleasing treat that’s perfect for game day, parties, or any time you need a cheesy snack fix.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the crescent dough sheet on a clean surface and cut into 8 equal rectangles.
Place one mozzarella cheese stick on the short edge of each rectangle and roll the dough tightly around it. Make sure to seal the edges well to prevent melting cheese from leaking out.
Arrange the rolled wedges on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down, ensuring they are spaced apart.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Stir in garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
Brush the seasoned butter mixture over the tops of the crescent wedges using a pastry brush.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the wedges for an extra cheesy flavor boost.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent dough is golden brown and flaky.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve the mozzarella wedges warm with marinara sauce for dipping on the side. Enjoy!
