Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 8 slices sliced ham
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons dried parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles as per the perforated lines.
Cut each slice of cheddar cheese in half, so you have 8 smaller pieces.
Place one slice of ham and one half-slice of cheddar cheese onto the wider end of each crescent triangle.
Roll each triangle towards the narrow tip, gently tucking the ham and cheese inside as you roll. Place the rolled crescents seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt butter in the microwave (about 10-15 seconds). Stir in garlic powder and dried parsley.
Brush the garlic butter mixture over the top of each crescent, ensuring even coverage.
Bake the crescents in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
