🥣 Recipe Tips

Ensure Even Cheese Melting: Cut the Swiss cheese slices to fit neatly within the crescent roll triangles before rolling. This prevents cheese from oozing out during baking, ensuring a consistent, melty texture in every bite of your Ham and Cheese Crescent Rolls.
Enhance the Butter Glaze Flavor: For an extra flavor boost, let the seasoned butter mixture sit for 5 minutes after whisking to allow the spices, like dried minced onions and garlic powder, to meld with the butter, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce, creating a richer glaze for brushing.
Prevent Soggy Rolls: To keep the crescent rolls crisp, avoid overstuffing with ham and cheese, and place them seam-side down on the baking sheet. This helps the dough hold its shape and ensures a golden, flaky texture after baking.
