At Sweet C’s, I add lots of tips in all of my recipes – because I am a home cook without any formal training, and I find I am more confident making dishes when I understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe – my goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.

I want each reader to walk away with a solid knowledge of each recipe, with all of the tips I’ve gathered from extensive testing of each recipe. I also answer questions my friends and family have asked about my recipes, to help everyone better understand the processes we use – and why!

Easy Garlic Butter Parmesan Dinner Rolls

These easy rolls are actually made from frozen biscuits that we’re using garlic butter to kick the flavor way up – and topping it with delicious parmesan for a crave-able side dish everyone will beg for seconds of!

This is one of the best ways to hack frozen dinner biscuits to taste like from-scratch dinner rolls – with almost no effort.

I hope your family loves this delicious easy recipe as much as we do!

What Rolls to Make Garlic Butter Parmesan Rolls With

While you can use any recipe you like for these rolls, I have designed this recipe to be used with pre-made frozen biscuit rolls for to-die-for delicious and super easy garlic parmesan biscuits everyone will beg for.

Of course making rolls from-scratch is better – but let’s face it – we don’t always have the time.

Using pre-made rolls saves a ton of time, and the rich garlic butter sauce we’re adding to them will make store-bought rolls taste anything but ordinary, I promise!

I use Grands Frozen Southern Style Biscuits for this recipe – you can buy them here.

How To Make Garlic Butter Rolls

To make these rolls to-die-for delicious, we’re slowly basting tons of garlic butter flavor into them as they bake.

Basting rolls with garlic butter sauce as it cooks helps the rich buttery flavor to sink all the way through the biscuit – without making it oily or greasy.

These biscuits taste more like garlicky dinner rolls than a flaky biscuit – and are so full of flavor, you don’t even need to put more butter on them!

For the recipe to work the best possible way, there are a couple of tips and tricks I like to use:

-Keep rolls very close together in the pan.

This will help to catch and absorb all the melted butter you use, preventing spills and burns in your pan.

-Baste rolls slowly.

You want to only add a little garlic butter sauce to each roll at a time – or they will get oily, soggy, and greasy.

Just a little bit, over and over, does the trick – don’t flood your rolls with tons of garlic butter all at once.

By: Courtney ODell
Servings: 8
Prep: 5 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes
Total: 20 minutes

These delicious garlic butter parmesan dinner rolls are made easily with frozen dinner rolls for an easy side any night of the week!

Ingredients 

  • 8 frozen grands rolls
  • 6 tbsp butter
  • 6 cloves garlic, finely diced
  • 1 green onions, finely diced
  • 3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp chopped green onions, optional, garnish
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley, optional, garnish

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a skillet lined with parchment paper, arrange rolls so they are together in the pan, touching as closely as possible.
  • In a small pan on the stove, melt butter and add garlic, parsley, and green onions.
  • Cook until garlic is fragrant and soft, about 4 minutes. Set aside
  • Bake rolls in the oven for 15 minutes.
  • Using a silicone brush, brush tops of biscuits as they bake with garlic butter mixture. I brush rolls 3-4 times as they cook, to really let the buttery flavor sink in.
  • Sprinkle parmesan on top of rolls every time you baste rolls – just a tiny bit will do.
  • When rolls are browned on sides and turning golden brown on top, they are done.
  • Remove from oven, serve immediately, and enjoy!
