Tips for Perfect Cheeseburger Rollups
- Let the beef mixture cool slightly before adding cheese to prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
- Roll the dough tightly so the filling stays inside.
- Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melt.
- Brush with garlic butter right after baking while the rollups are still hot for maximum flavor. 🧄✨
