Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 strips cooked bacon
- 1/4 cup garlic butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 package crescent roll dough
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and let it preheat while you prepare the filling.
- Cook the Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it’s nicely browned. Season with salt and pepper as it cooks to bring out that savory burger flavor.
- Prepare the Bacon and Butter Mix: Once the beef is cooked, chop up the cooked bacon and add it to the skillet along with the garlic butter. Stir everything together so the flavors meld beautifully.
- Roll Up the Dough: Unroll the crescent dough and lay it out on a clean surface. Spoon the beef mixture down the center of each crescent roll. Carefully roll up each one, tucking in the filling as you go.
- Top with Cheddar Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the rollups. As they bake, the cheese will melt over the rolls, adding that irresistible cheesy crust.
- Bake: Place the rollups on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve and Enjoy!: Let them cool slightly, then slice and serve. These cheesy, savory rollups are perfect with a side of ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Cheese Choices: While cheddar is classic, feel free to mix it up with other cheeses like Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or mozzarella for a different twist.
- Seasoning Options: Add a sprinkle of onion powder or smoked paprika to the beef for an extra flavor boost.
- Bacon Tips: Cook the bacon until crispy for the best texture in the rollups.
- Garlic Butter Shortcut: Don’t have garlic butter? Melt regular butter and mix in a few cloves of minced garlic for a quick substitute.
