How to make crescent roll wreaths
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the crescent roll dough sheet into six 2 inch wide strips.
Slice the strip lengthwise down the center, making sure to leave the end of the strip intact.
Twist the two strips together to the end, then bring the ends together at the top to form a circle.
Place the crescent roll wreaths on the lined baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
Top each one with Italian seasoning and garlic powder.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 12 minutes, until the crescent rolls are golden brown.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly, then cut the rosemary sprigs into 6 pieces and place one piece on top of each wreath.
Use a small star cookie cutter to cut out star shapes from the cheese slices and decorate each wreath with one star.
Tips for success/Variations:
Here are some tips and variations that will make these crescent roll wreaths the best you’ve ever had.
- This wreath is twisted with two strands, but you can get even fancier and braid with three or more strands.
- Be sure to use a silicone mat or parchment paper on the baking sheet and remove the wreaths before they get too brown on the bottom.
- You can find crescent roll dough in the refrigerated section of the grocery store by the dairy. Pillsbury is a great brand to use here.
- You can shape the crescent dough into rolls or another shape if you’d prefer. There are no limits here!
How to serve crescent roll wreaths:
You can serve these wreaths with other appetizers like Cranberry Cheesecake Crescent Rolls, Crockpot Cranberry Meatballs, or Caesar Salad Bacon Cups.
How to store:
To save leftover wreaths, remove the rosemary and cheese star and place them in an airtight container on the counter for up to three days. You can heat them up a little by placing them in the microwave for 10 seconds.
You can also freeze the wreaths after you’ve made them. Put them in a freezer bag, label, and freeze for up to three months. Leave them out on the counter to thaw or heat them up in the microwave.
FAQs:
Can I make one big crescent roll wreath?

Can I stuff the wreaths?

What else can I top these wreaths with?
