Cheesy Garlic Cruffin
Rating
Cheesy Garlic Chive Cruffins are crescent-roll dough that is filled with cheesy chive garlic butter, rolled, cut, and baked in a muffin tin. They are the perfect side to any meal.
Ingredients
- Dough
- 3 tubes (8 ounces each) refrigerated crescent roll sheets
- Filling
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 3 cups (339 g) mild cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
- Garlic Butter
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chives, finely chopped
- 1 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 12×16-inch rectangle. (We used crescent roll sheets; if you use perforated crescent roll dough, be sure to pinch the seams to seal.)
- Filling
- In a medium bowl combine butter, chives, and garlic.
- Spread about ⅓ of the butter mixture over the top of one sheet of dough.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of the cheddar cheese evenly over the butter mixture.
- 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. While the cruffins are baking, prepare the garlic butter.
- Garlic Butter
- In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, garlic, chives, and salt.
- Brush the butter topping over the warm rolls.
