ingredients
- 2 8 oz tubes of crescent roll dough
- 6 fresh garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh basil, choped
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 shredded Parmesan cheese
- salt to taste
Method
Step 1
Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Step 2
Add the butter and garlic to a small saucepan. Heat it over low heat for about 1-2 minutes, until the butter has melted and the garlic is slightly softened.
Step 3
Remove the crescent roll dough from the tubes and roll it out into rectangles. Cut each rectangle in half lengthwise. This should leave you with 8 dough strips per tube (16 total).
Step 4
Add the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese to a small bowl and combine well.
Step 5
Brush the butter and garlic mixture evenly over each dough strip, then sprinkle with parsley, basil, and the cheese mixture.
Step 6
Roll each strip rectangle into a tube, with the buttery cheese and herb mixture inside.
Step 7
Tie the tubes by crossing one end over the other, and tying them into a knot.
Step 8
Arrange the knots on a baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the knots are golden brown and fully cooked.
Step 9
Remove the knots from the oven and brush the tops of the garlic knots with the remaining garlic butter. Sprinkle with the extra shredded Parmesan cheese, extra herbs, and a pinch of salt.
