What types of cheese work best for these bites?

Mozzarella and sharp cheddar provide a gooey, sharp flavor balance, but brie or goat cheese can be used for a creamier variation.

Can I prepare these in advance?

You can assemble the rolls ahead of time and refrigerate them before baking. Bake fresh for the best flaky texture and melted cheese.

Italian dried herbs combined with fresh chives or parsley add a fragrant and savory note that complements the cheeses.

Marinara sauce or pesto are excellent accompaniments that enhance the savory profile of these baked bites.

Thin slices of ham or salami can be rolled inside the dough with the cheeses to add savory depth and texture.
