Craving cheeseburgers but short on time? These Garlic Butter Cheeseburger Rollups are the answer! Flaky crescent roll dough, savory ground beef, gooey cheese, and a luscious garlic butter topping combine for an irresistible bite. Perfect for game day, parties, or a quick weeknight dinner!

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Beef Mixture
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease, then stir in the chopped onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 2–3 minutes, until the onions are softened and fragrant.

Step 2: Add the Cheese
Remove the skillet from heat and mix in the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese melts and the mixture becomes creamy and well combined.

Step 3: Assemble the Rollups
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles. Spoon a generous amount of the beef and cheese mixture onto the wide end of each triangle, then roll up tightly toward the tip.

Step 4: Brush with Garlic Butter & Bake
Place the rollups on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Combine melted butter with minced garlic in a small bowl, then brush the mixture generously over each rollup. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 5: Serve & Enjoy
Let the rollups cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.


FAQ

Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! Assemble the rollups up to 24 hours in advance, cover them tightly, and refrigerate. When ready to bake, just add 2–3 extra minutes to the cooking time.

What other cheeses work well?
Cheddar is classic, but you can also use Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or Pepper Jack for a little spice.

Can I freeze these rollups?
Absolutely. Let the baked rollups cool completely, then freeze in an airtight container. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through.

What’s the best dipping sauce?
Ranch, honey mustard, spicy mayo, or even BBQ sauce all pair beautifully with these rollups.

How can I make them a bit healthier?
Use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef, and brush lightly with olive oil instead of butter for a lighter version.
