Description

Ham Cheddar Crescent Roll-Ups are a delightful combination of flaky, golden pastry wrapped around savory ham and melted cheddar cheese. Each bite offers a satisfying crunch followed by a warm, cheesy explosion that tantalizes the taste buds.


Ingredients

  • Crescent Roll Dough: 2 cans (8 oz each) of refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • Ham: 8 oz sliced deli ham, cut into strips
  • Cheddar Cheese: 8 oz shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Butter: 2 tablespoons melted, for brushing
  • Garlic Powder: 1 teaspoon, for seasoning
  • Parsley: 1 tablespoon fresh, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles on a clean surface.
  3. Place a strip of ham and a generous amount of cheddar cheese at the wide end of each triangle.
  4. Roll the dough tightly around the filling, starting from the wide end and rolling towards the point.
  5. Place the roll-ups on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced apart.
  6. Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

  • Make-ahead: You can prepare the roll-ups a few hours in advance and refrigerate them before baking.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Substitutions: Use turkey or chicken instead of ham for a lighter option, or try different cheeses like Swiss or pepper jack for varied flavors.
