These Garlic Butter Beef Cheeseburger Rollups are savory, cheesy, and irresistibly delicious. Made with flaky crescent roll dough, juicy ground beef, and sharp cheddar cheese, they’re brushed with a garlic butter topping for the ultimate golden finish.
🥩 For the Beef Filling:
1 pound ground beef (85% lean)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ cup yellow onion, finely diced
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
🥐 For the Dough and Topping:
1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 count)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon garlic powder (for garlic butter)
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional for garnish)
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large skillet, cook 1 lb ground beef and ½ cup diced onion over medium heat.
Stir frequently and cook for 8–10 minutes, until the beef is browned and onions are soft.
Drain any excess grease.
Stir in:
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
Once the beef mixture is slightly cooled, stir in:
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Mix until well combined.
Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 8 individual triangles.
Place each triangle on the prepared baking sheet.
Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon of the beef and cheese mixture onto the wide end of each dough triangle.
Roll the dough tightly from the wide end toward the tip, enclosing the filling.
In a small bowl, mix:
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Brush each rollup generously with the garlic butter.
Bake at 375°F for 12–15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley (optional) for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces (ranch, ketchup, BBQ, or spicy mayo).
Cheese Tip: Sharp cheddar offers the best balance of flavor and meltability. For a twist, try pepper jack or mozzarella.
Make Ahead: You can cook the beef mixture up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerate.
Freezing: Assemble rollups and freeze unbaked on a tray. Store in a freezer bag and bake from frozen, adding 3–5 extra minutes.
Air Fryer Option: Cook at 330°F for 8–10 minutes in a preheated air fryer.
