Can I prepare these rollups in advance?

Q1: Yes, you can! Simply prepare the beef and bacon filling ahead of time, then refrigerate it. When ready to bake, assemble the rollups and pop them in the oven.

Can I use another type of dough?

Absolutely! Crescent dough is convenient, but puff pastry or even pizza dough works as a tasty alternative. Just adjust the cooking time slightly if needed.

How do I store leftovers?

If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, bake in a 350°F oven for about 5 minutes to maintain crispness.

What’s the best dipping sauce for these rollups?

Classic sauces like ketchup, mustard, or BBQ sauce work well. For a spicy twist, try sriracha mayo or a spicy garlic aioli.

Can I make a vegetarian version of these rollups?

Sure! Substitute the ground beef with a meatless alternative and use veggie bacon or skip the bacon altogether. Add more veggies like mushrooms or peppers for extra flavor.

Garlic Butter Bacon Cheeseburger Rollups

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.
