Garlic Parmesan Cheese Rolls

When I saw this recipe in the December Taste of Home magazine I just knew I had to make them … for you. They looked so delicious along with being fast and easy.  From previous Decembers I know that life gets busier, the days get shorter, and the to-do lists go on forever! This recipe fits into the fast paced December we are speeding toward!

These garlic Parmesan cheese rolls will make an exceptional appetizers as well as a nice roll along with any chicken, fish, or beef you decide to prepare this month! We can thank Pillsbury for a quick start with this crusty french loaf.
The goodies for the inside go together quickly. Butter, chopped green onions, fresh parsley, minced garlic and Parmesan cheese.
Once the crusty loaf is unrolled the yummy mixture is spread across the dough.
  The log roll is cut into 12 slices, placed in a muffin tin and baked.  They can be served immediately or added to a buffet table along with other appetizers.  The flavors will burst among the crusty layers of the little spiral rolls.  Enjoy!
