Equipment

12-inch cast iron pan

Ingredients

1 bag frozen Parkerhouse Style Roll dough I used Bridgford
6 low-moisture Mozzarella cheese sticks
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup butter
2 garlic cloves minced
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Thaw frozen dinner rolls overnight in the refrigerator. You will only need 16 of them.
Or you can thaw them for 4 hours on the counter.
Cut 4 of the mozzarella sticks into 4 equal pieces each so that you have 16 pieces.
Fold each defrosted dinner roll around a piece of mozzarella, pinching the edges to seal. Place seam side down in a greased 12-inch cast iron pan.
Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 60 to 90 minutes.
Cut the remaining 2 pieces mozzarella cheese into 8 pieces each. Once rolls have risen, tuck these pieces between the rolls.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Bake 10 minutes.
While they are baking, place butter, garlic, garlic salt, and red pepper flakes in a small microwave safe bowl. Microwave until butter is melted.
Once rolls have baked for 10 minutes, remove them from the oven. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and parsley. Drizzle butter mixture on top.
Return to oven and bake 5 to 8 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

Notes

If you don't have a 12-inch cast iron pan, you can use a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Store leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 300 degree oven or air fryer.
