Tips:

  • Use fresh mozzarella cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you can't find fresh mozzarella, you can use shredded mozzarella cheese, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before you mix it with the other ingredients.
  • If you're using a food processor to mix the cream cheese, be careful not to overmix it. You should only mix it until it's smooth and creamy.
  • If you're using a stand mixer to mix the cream cheese, start on low speed and gradually increase the speed until the cream cheese is smooth and creamy.
  • Use a variety of fillings for your roll-ups. Some popular options include sun-dried tomatoes, pesto, roasted red peppers, and artichoke hearts.
  • If you're making the roll-ups ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Bring them to room temperature before serving.
