Ingredients
Dough
- 3 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent roll sheets
Filling*
- ½ cup Challenge® Garlic Parm and Herb Snack Spread, room temperature, divided
- 3 cups (339 g) mild cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
Topping*
- 3 tablespoons Challenge® Garlic Parm and Herb Snack Spread, melted
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
Dough
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
- Working on a lightly floured work surface, roll out each tube of dough to a 12x16-inch rectangle. (We used crescent roll sheets; if you use perforated crescent roll dough, be sure to pinch the seams to seal.)
Filling
- Spread about ⅓ of the snack spread over the top of one sheet of dough.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of the cheddar cheese evenly over the butter.
- Starting on the long end of the dough sheet, tightly roll it up into a log.
- Cut the log in half, creating two shorter logs.
- Cut each of those shorter logs in half lengthwise, giving you four sections of dough.
- Repeat with the remaining two sheets of dough. You will have 12 sections of dough.
- Working one section of dough at a time with the layered side facing out, roll it tightly into a cinnamon roll shape, tucking in the end piece of dough.
- Place into the prepared muffin tin. Repeat with the remaining 11 sections.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
Topping
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted snack spread and salt.
- Brush the butter topping over the warm rolls. Serve.
Notes
- *If you can't find Challenge® Garlic Parm and Herb Snack Spread, make homemade garlic butter for the filling and the topping.
