Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cut each string cheese stick in half crosswise to create 8 shorter sticks. Place the garlic herb butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, about 30-45 seconds.
3. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the perforated lines.
4. Brush each triangle lightly with some of the melted garlic herb butter. Place one cheese stick half on the wide end of each triangle. Fold the sides of the dough up over the cheese, then roll it up toward the point. Arrange the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with more garlic herb butter.
5. Bake for 10 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted. Serve warm with the remaining garlic herb butter for dipping.
