Cheese Stuffed Crescent Rolls – Super Bowl Snack
When the smell of melting cheese inside a steaming pastry filling up the kitchen just pop open a bottle and enjoy the game!
Choosing between cheese scones and crescent rolls is a really a taxing decision. Which one should be brought to a deserted island? Luckily we can’t go wrong with any of it but still having both at the same time is the best solution.
To be honest these rolls are filled with cheese so they just couldn’t survive an island trip. They hardly survive the trip to the dinning table but that’s for a different reason. It doesn’t matter how much is baked, surely nothing will be left on the plate by the end of the day. Especially not when there is a game going on TV. It’s worth to mention that this probably isn’t the healthiest super bowl recipe ever but definitely one of the tastiest. Especially if there is a bottle of beer to wash it down.
Ingredients
Dough
- 0.5 oz / 15g Fresh yeast
- 1/2 cup / 100ml Lukewarm milk or water
- 5 cup / 600g Flour
- 10 tablespoon / 150g Butter
- 4 oz / 125g Plain yogurt

- 2 oz / 50g Grated cheese (Gouda, Edam)

How to make cheese stuffed crescent roll
- Sprinkle and stir the yeast into the lukewarm milk or water in a cup. Set it aside and let rest. If it gets foamy don’t worry it’s completely normal.
- Whilst we are waiting, measure and put the flour, butter, yogurt and eggs in a large bowl. When it’s ready, pour in yeast mixture too. Make the dough.
- After we finished with kneading it, we don’t need to wait for it to raise.
- Divide the dough into 4 balls, set them somewhere warm cover 3 and we can start working with the fourth straight away.
- Put the ball in the middle of the desk and roll it flat into a shape of a circle.
- Cut it into 8 equal pieces like a pizza.
- Put cheese on top each piece then roll them up and bend them into a crescent shape. Then put them on the tray.
- Use the egg yolk to brush it on top of the rolls and sprinkle some salt on it. Now it’s ready to pop it into the preheated 356°F / 180°C oven for half an hour.
- Turn the tray at half time. Take them out when golden brown on top.
Here they are, enjoy the freshly baked, homemade cheese dinner rolls!
