Ingredients

• 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 8 slices sliced ham
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons dried parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles as per the perforated lines.

Step 3

Cut each slice of cheddar cheese in half, so you have 8 smaller pieces.

Step 4

Place one slice of ham and one half-slice of cheddar cheese onto the wider end of each crescent triangle.

Step 5

Roll each triangle towards the narrow tip, gently tucking the ham and cheese inside as you roll. Place the rolled crescents seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 6

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt butter in the microwave (about 10-15 seconds). Stir in garlic powder and dried parsley.

Step 7

Brush the garlic butter mixture over the top of each crescent, ensuring even coverage.

Step 8

Bake the crescents in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
