Cheesy Garlic Parmesan Knots (25 Minutes)

• 2 (8 oz) tubes crescent roll dough
• 6 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• Salt, to taste

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Add the butter and garlic to a small saucepan and melt over low heat for 1-2 minutes until the garlic has softened.

3. 3

   Unroll the crescent dough into rectangles. Cut each rectangle in half lengthwise to get 8 strips per tube (16 total).

4. 4

   In a small bowl, combine the mozzarella and Parmesan. Brush each dough strip with the garlic-butter mixture, then sprinkle with parsley, basil, and the cheese blend.

5. 5

   Roll each strip into a tube with the filling inside, then tie each into a knot by crossing the ends and tucking them through.

6. 6

   Arrange the knots on the baking sheet and bake about 15 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

7. 7

   Brush the hot knots with the remaining garlic butter and sprinkle with extra Parmesan, herbs, and a pinch of salt.
