Inspired by this beloved classic, these rollups take the cheeseburger experience to the next level by making it portable, snackable, and infused with rich garlic butter flavors.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup diced pickles
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tube refrigerated pizza dough
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Ketchup and mustard (for dipping)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Filling

  2. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the crumbled bacon. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 2: Roll the Dough

  2. Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1-inch thick pieces.

Step 4: Bake to Perfection

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange the rollups on the prepared sheet, leaving space between each piece.
  3. In a small bowl, combine melted butter and minced garlic. Brush the garlic butter generously over each roll-up.
  4. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
