1

Heat oven to 375°F. In small microwavable bowl, microwave garlic, butter and oil on High 30 seconds or until butter is melted. Stir in basil and parsley; set aside.
2

Unroll dough; separate into 12 breadsticks. Twist and tie each breadstick into a “knot-like” ball; place in ungreased 9-inch round cake pan.
3

Spoon butter-herb mixture evenly over top of each knot. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4

Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.

You can replace the fresh herbs with 1/2 teaspoon each of dried basil leaves and parsley flakes.
Grated Parmesan cheese can also be sprinkled on the rolls before baking.
