Garlic Butter Bacon Cheeseburger Rollups

Next, brush the melted butter on the dough, making sure to coat it evenly. This step adds flavor and helps the dough crisp up nicely during baking. Then, spoon the beef, bacon, and cheese mixture onto the center of the dough. Be sure to spread it out evenly, but don’t overfill to avoid spilling when you roll them up.

Carefully roll the dough into a log shape, tucking in the sides as you go to ensure the filling stays inside. Pinch the seams together to seal the rollup. If you’re using crescent roll dough, simply roll each triangle into a small cylinder, ensuring the filling is well-contained. Use a sharp knife to slice the log into individual rollups, about 1-2 inches each.

Place the rollups on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between them to allow for even baking. Brush the tops with any remaining melted butter for a golden, crispy finish.

Bake the rollups in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes of baking to avoid overbaking.

Serving Suggestions

Once baked, remove the Garlic Butter Bacon Cheeseburger Rollups from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving. These rollups are perfect for dipping! Serve them with ketchup, mustard, or a side of ranch dressing for added flavor. They’re great as a main dish, snack, or appetizer and will surely be a hit at any gathering.

Make-Ahead & Storage

You can prepare these rollups ahead of time by assembling them, covering them tightly, and refrigerating them for up to 24 hours before baking. To store leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes, or until heated through. You can also freeze the assembled rollups before baking. Just freeze them on the baking sheet, then transfer them to a freezer-safe container. When ready to bake, add a few extra minutes to the baking time from frozen.

Tips

• If you prefer a spicier kick, you can add a few dashes of hot sauce or diced jalapeños to the beef mixture.
• For a different flavor profile, try adding a slice of melted mozzarella or Swiss cheese instead of cheddar for a gooey texture.
• To make them extra crispy, you can sprinkle a little grated Parmesan cheese over the top before baking.
