Ingredients
  

  • 3 tubes refrigerated crescent roll sheets 8 ounces each
  • ½ cup Challenge® Garlic Parm and Herb Snack Spread room temperature, divided
  • 3 cups mild cheddar cheese shredded, divided
  • 3 tablespoons Challenge® Garlic Parm and Herb Snack Spread melted
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Mixing Bowl
  • rolling pin

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. Working on a lightly floured work surface, roll out each tube of dough to a 12×16-inch rectangle.
  3. Spread about ⅓ of the snack spread over the top of one sheet of dough.
  4. Sprinkle 1 cup of the cheddar cheese evenly over the butter.
  5. Starting on the long end of the dough sheet, tightly roll it up into a log.
  6. Cut the log in half, creating two shorter logs. Cut each of those shorter logs in half lengthwise, giving you four sections of dough.
  7. Repeat with the remaining two sheets of dough. You will have 12 sections of dough.
  8. Working one section of dough at a time with the layered side facing out, roll it tightly into a cinnamon roll shape, tucking in the end piece of dough.
  9. Place into the prepared muffin tin. Repeat with the remaining 11 sections.
  10. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted snack spread and salt. Brush the butter topping over the warm rolls. Serve.
