Recipes FAQ

Can I make these cheese bites ahead of time?

Yes! You can assemble the cheese bites ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator until you're ready to bake them. Just make sure to brush them with the butter mixture right before baking.

Can I freeze these cheese bites?

Yes! You can freeze these cheese bites before or after baking. To freeze before baking, assemble the bites and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for 1-2 hours, then transfer to a freezer-safe container or bag. To bake, follow the instructions but add a few extra minutes to the cook time. To freeze after baking, let the cheese bites cool completely, then transfer to a freezer-safe container or bag. To reheat, microwave for a few seconds or bake in the oven until heated through.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to pinch the edges of the crescent dough together tightly to prevent the cheese from oozing out during baking.
  • If you don't have garlic powder or dried parsley, you can substitute with other herbs or spices that you have on hand.
  • For an extra cheesy flavor, sprinkle some shredded cheese on top of the butter mixture before baking.
