Grilled Cheese Crescent Doughnuts
I mean, the world needs more savory doughnuts right?!

So, what can I say? I can talk about buttery, flaky layers of crescent dough, toasted perfectly, held together by gooey, melty cheese. I can definitely tell you that once your face sinks down into one, just one bite of this melt-in-your-mouth, out of this world puffed pillow of perfection, you will never be the same. Nothing will ever taste that great again…nothing will ever quite compare.

Ingredients

  • 2 rolls of Pillsbury Crescent Seamless Dough Sheets
  • 6 to 8 slices Velveeta Cheese slices
  • Oil for frying
  • 3″ cookie cutter, and a 1″ cookie cutter (or like tool), the size can be whatever you prefer though.

Preparation

  1. Roll out the top layer of dough, a little dusting of flour to help is fine! Set it aside.
  2. Roll out the bottom layer 0f dough, making sure it’s pretty much the same size as the top layer.
  3. Place slices of the cheese all over the bottom layer, cover as much cheese ground as possible.
  4. Place the top layer of dough onto the cheese and roll together.
  5. Fold it in half and roll it out again, until it’s approximately  1/8″ thick.
  6. To create doughnuts, cut out 3″ circles and then cut out the middles with a 1″ cutter.
  7. Heat oil to 350 degrees.
  8. Fry doughnuts one at a time, making sure to flip them for the ultimate golden puff.
  9. Cool before serving.
