| 2 | Fresh parsley |

Instructions:
-
Prepare the Parsley Garlic Butter:
- Begin by mixing together finely chopped fresh parsley, softened butter, and minced garlic in a small bowl. This aromatic blend will infuse the rolls with irresistible flavors.
-
-
Roll Out the Dough:
- Take your frozen bread dough and let it thaw according to the package instructions. Once thawed, roll it out into a large square, approximately 12 inches in size. This will be the base for our delicious filling.
-
Spread the Butter Mixture:
- Using a pastry brush, generously spread the parsley garlic butter mixture all over the rolled-out dough. Make sure to leave a 1/2-inch border along the top and bottom edges to allow for easy sealing.
-
Roll Up the Dough:
- Carefully roll up the dough jelly-roll style, starting from the bottom edge. As you roll, the flavorful butter mixture will create beautiful swirls throughout the dough.
-
Slice into Rolls:
- Once rolled, press the edges together gently to seal the roll. Then, using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 1-inch wide pieces. You’ll see the lovely layers of parsley and garlic butter as you cut through.
-
Arrange in Muffin Tins:
- Grease a muffin tin lightly with butter or cooking spray. Place each slice of the roll into the muffin cups, cut side down. This will allow the rolls to rise and bake into perfect golden spirals.
-
Let Rise:
- Cover the muffin tin with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Allow the rolls to rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour, or until they have doubled in size. This step ensures light and airy rolls.
-
Preheat and Bake:
- When the rolls have risen beautifully, preheat your oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC). Bake the rolls for 9 to 11 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fragrant. The aroma of garlic and parsley will fill your kitchen!
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once baked to perfection, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly in the muffin tin. Then, carefully transfer them to a serving platter. These Easy Parsley Garlic Rolls are best enjoyed warm, with the buttery layers melting in your mouth.
Tips and Variations:
- Make Ahead: These rolls can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator overnight. Simply cover the muffin tin with plastic wrap and refrigerate. When ready to bake, let them come to room temperature before placing in the oven.
- Cheesy Variation: For an extra indulgent twist, sprinkle some grated Parmesan or shredded mozzarella cheese over the parsley garlic butter before rolling up the dough.
- Herb Infusion: Experiment with different herbs such as rosemary, thyme, or oregano to create your custom herb-infused butter.
- Dipping Sauces: Serve these rolls alongside marinara sauce, garlic aioli, or a balsamic glaze for dipping. The possibilities are endless!
