Quick Cheesy Bread Rolls

I was chatting with fellow food lover at the office this week and she was telling me about a cute little Italian restaurant in town that serves the most amazing little bread balls served with olive oil. They sounded so good that I decided to try to make my own. Now this was my first attempt and they didn't really turn out how I anticipated but I know what I would change, I used crescent roll dough and that was the wrong thing to do, it was much too sweet. Next time I will use a pizza dough, I honestly don't know what I was thinking with the crescent dough, sweet does not go well with olive oil! That being said here is my take on the bread rolls.

*I took dough and rolled it between my hands then placed on foil to spread out


*I then brushed the dough with a garlic butter mix. I only use real butter, none of that almost plastic crap that my kids call "manmade butter". For my butter brush I melt one stick of butter with minced garlic. Don't use the powder junk!

*I added mozzarella cheese in the center and then tucked dough into a ball.

*Lastly, I brushed each roll with an egg wash & then of course more of my garlic butter and baked at 375 for 15 minutes.


I served these with spaghetti with my own homemade pasta sauce, they were very tasty but as I said I will definitely use a different dough next time. It's always fun trying new things and trail and error are all part of the game.
