Garlic Butter Bacon Rollups (Printer-Friendly)

Crispy bacon, cheddar and mozzarella filled tortillas brushed with garlic butter, baked until golden and melty.

# List of Ingredients:

→ Garlic Butter

01 - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
02 - 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
03 - 1 tablespoon dried parsley
04 - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
05 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

→ Rollups

06 - 6 large flour tortillas (about 10 inches each)
07 - 10 slices smoked bacon, cooked until crispy and crumbled
08 - 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
09 - 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
10 - 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)

# Preparation Steps:

01 - In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, salt, and pepper until the mixture is thoroughly combined.
02 - Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lay out the large flour tortillas on a clean, flat surface to prepare for filling.
03 - Brush each tortilla generously with the garlic butter mixture, ensuring even coverage. Sprinkle crumbled bacon evenly over each tortilla, then add shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. If desired, scatter chopped chives on top.
04 - Starting from one edge, tightly roll each tortilla into a spiral to enclose the filling. Place each rolled tortilla seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
05 - Brush the tops of the rollups with any remaining garlic butter. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
06 - Let the rollups rest for several minutes after baking. Slice each roll into bite-sized pieces and serve warm.

# Additional Suggestions:

01 - Allowing the rollups to cool briefly after baking helps the cheese set and makes slicing cleaner.
02 - Crisping the bacon fully before assembly prevents sogginess and enhances texture.
03 - For a vibrant finish, add fresh chives or parsley just before serving.
04 - Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days; reheat in the oven to restore crispness.
