Cheesy Garlic Butter Rollups

Instructions:

1. Flatten each slice of bread with a rolling pin until thin and pliable.
2. Place one cheese stick or several strips of cheese along one edge of each bread slice, then roll up tightly like a cigar.
3. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, parsley, and a pinch of salt.
4. Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over each rollup, coating all sides.
5. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place rollups seam-side down and cook, turning every 2–3 minutes, until all sides are golden and crispy. Work in batches if necessary.
6. Serve immediately while hot and melty, with marinara or ranch dipping sauce on the side.

Variations :

• Spicy Kick: Add crushed red pepper flakes to the garlic butter.
• Stuffed Twist: Add a thin layer of pepperoni or ham before rolling.
• Italian Style: Swap garlic powder for Italian seasoning or add a pinch of oregano.
• Herb Upgrade: Use fresh chopped herbs like basil or chives in place of dried parsley.
• Mini Version: Cut bread in half before rolling for bite-sized party snacks.

Tips :

• Use day-old or slightly dry bread—it flattens more easily and crisps up better.
• Make sure the skillet isn’t too hot, or the bread may burn before the cheese melts.
• For an extra crispy exterior, bake in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes after pan-frying.
• Keep rollups warm in a low oven if serving a crowd.
• Serve with multiple dipping options to suit different tastes.
