Ingredients

Garlic Butter

  • 4 tablespoons butter softened
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced or grated
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or dried finely chopped (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • Pinch of salt if needed

Roll-Ups

  • 8 slices soft white sandwich bread
  • 8 slices sharp cheddar cheese
  • 8 slices mozzarella or provolone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter for cooking

Instructions

Prepare the Bread

  • Remove the crusts from the bread slices.
  • Using a rolling pin, flatten each slice of bread until thin and flexible.

Add the Cheese

  • Place a slice of cheddar and a slice of mozzarella or provolone on each piece of flattened bread.
  • Roll the bread tightly around the cheese, placing the seam side down.
  • (If needed, gently press the seam to help it hold together.)

Make the Garlic Butter

  • Mix softened butter, garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese together until combined.
  • Spread the garlic butter lightly over the outside of each roll-up.

Cook Until Golden

  • Heat a skillet over medium-low heat.
  • Add a little butter to the pan and place the roll-ups seam side down.
  • Cook, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted.

Finish and Serve

  • Brush with a little extra garlic butter while warm and sprinkle with additional Parmesan if desired.
  • Serve immediately with creamy tomato soup for dipping.

Notes

  • Use soft sandwich bread for the easiest rolling.
  • Do not overfill the roll-ups; too much cheese can cause them to burst before the bread crisps.
  • A combination of cheddar and mozzarella gives you both flavor and that classic cheese pull.
  • For a richer garlic bread flavor, add a final sprinkle of Parmesan after cooking.
