Ingredients

Scale

Beef Mixture

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Cheese

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Dough

  • 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough or pizza dough

Garlic Butter

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain any excess fat to keep the rollups from being too greasy.
  2. Cook the Onion: Add the finely chopped yellow onion to the skillet with the beef and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the onions are soft and translucent.
  3. Season the Beef Mixture: Stir in the minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional minute to combine all the flavors, then remove the skillet from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
  4. Prepare the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the crescent roll or pizza dough into a large rectangle. If using crescent roll dough, pinch the seams together so the dough behaves as one sheet.
  5. Assemble the Rollups: Spread the cooled beef mixture evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese uniformly over the beef layer.
  7. Roll the Dough: Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Slice the log into 10 to 12 individual rollups using a sharp knife.
  8. Prepare for Baking: Place the rollups spiral side up on a greased baking dish or a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking.
  9. Make Garlic Butter: Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave, then stir in the minced garlic. Brush this garlic butter generously over the tops of each rollup.
  10. Bake: Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 18 to 22 minutes or until the rollups turn golden brown and are bubbling with melted cheese.
  11. Finishing Touch: After baking, brush the rollups again with any remaining garlic butter to enhance flavor and add moisture. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
  12. Serve: Let the rollups cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set slightly and to avoid burns.

Notes

  • You can substitute crescent roll dough with pizza dough depending on preference.
  • For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the beef mixture.
  • Make sure to drain excess fat completely to prevent soggy dough.
  • Customize with other cheeses like mozzarella or pepper jack for variety.
  • These rollups can be reheated in the oven wrapped in foil to retain moisture.
