Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare Filling:
In a small bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, and chopped chives until well combined.
Assemble Cruffins:
Unroll crescent dough sheets and separate into triangles.
Spread a thin layer of the garlic-chive butter over each triangle.
Sprinkle cheese if using.
Roll each triangle tightly from the wide end to the tip, forming a crescent.
For extra flakiness, twist the rolled dough gently before placing on the baking sheet.
Bake:
Place rolled cruffins on the prepared baking sheet, spaced apart.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown and puffed.
Serve:
Let cool slightly, then enjoy warm. Perfect on its own or with a side of scrambled eggs.
