French Dip Squares are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or casual meal featuring layers of deli-sliced roast beef and Swiss cheese sandwiched between golden, flaky crescent roll dough, topped with a savory onion soup butter mixture. Served with warm beef broth for dipping, these squares offer the classic flavors of a French dip sandwich in a fun, shareable form.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 2 cans refrigerated crescent rolls

Filling

  • 1/2 pound deli-sliced roast beef
  • 1 cup grated Swiss cheese

Sauce Topping

  • 1 packet dry onion soup mix
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Dipping Broth

  • 1 cup beef broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare base layer: Roll out one can of crescent rolls directly in the baking dish, pressing the seams together to create an even and solid dough layer that will form the base of the squares.
  3. Add roast beef and cheese: Layer the deli-sliced roast beef evenly over the dough base, then sprinkle the grated Swiss cheese on top of the beef to add creamy, melted cheesiness.
  4. Make the sauce topping: In a small bowl, combine the dry onion soup mix, melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Drizzle this flavorful mixture evenly over the cheese layer to enhance the savory taste of the squares.
  5. Top with second dough layer: Roll out the second can of crescent rolls and carefully place it over the beef and cheese layers. Pinch all seams together to seal and create a smooth top layer to hold the filling inside while baking.
  6. Bake the squares: Place the prepared dish into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and cooked through, creating a flaky and crispy crust.
  7. Warm the beef broth: While the squares bake, pour the beef broth into a small pot and heat it over medium heat until warm. This warmed broth will be used as a delicious dipping sauce.
  8. Cool and cut: Remove the baking dish from the oven and allow the French Dip Squares to cool slightly. Then cut them into individual squares for serving.
  9. Serve: Serve the squares warm alongside the heated beef broth for dipping. Enjoy the classic French dip flavors in a fun, easy-to-share square form!

Notes

  • These French Dip Squares are perfect as appetizers or a casual, easy-to-eat meal for family and friends.
  • For extra flavor, try adding caramelized onions or sautéed mushrooms layered with the beef and cheese.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, incorporate a bit of horseradish or Dijon mustard spread on the roast beef before layering.
