Ingredients
Instructions
- Melt butter in a round cake pan.
- Stir in parsley, dill seed, minced onion, and grated cheese.
- Let the mixture stand for 30 minutes.
- Cut each biscuit in half.
- Dip each biscuit half into the butter mixture, turning once to coat well.

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, try using garlic butter instead of plain butter. You can substitute fresh herbs for dried ones, adjusting the quantity to taste. If you don't have Parmesan cheese, any hard cheese like Pecorino or Grana Padano works well. Keep an eye on the biscuits as baking times can vary based on your oven. These delicious rolls can also be served as a side with Mae'S Friendship Loaf.
Serving Suggestions
These luncheon rolls are perfect for brunch or as a snack with soup or salad. Pair them with a fresh garden salad or serve alongside a bowl of Quick Cobbler (No Fool) Pie for a delightful meal. You can also offer a selection of spreads, like herb butter or cream cheese, to enhance their flavor.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover luncheon rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through, or microwave them for 15-20 seconds if you're in a hurry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen biscuits instead of refrigerated ones?
Yes, you can use frozen biscuits! Just make sure to thaw them first before cutting and dipping into the butter mixture. Adjust the baking time slightly as frozen biscuits may take a little longer to cook through.
What can I do if I don’t have dill seed?
If you don't have dill seed, you can substitute it with dried dill weed or even fresh dill, using about three times the amount as it is less concentrated. This will still provide a lovely flavor to the rolls.
Can I make these rolls ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the butter mixture in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Just remember to bring it back to room temperature before dipping the biscuits. You can also bake the rolls and reheat them later for convenience.
