Can I use a different cheese?

Absolutely! Provolone or mozzarella work beautifully if Swiss isn’t your favorite.

How do I store leftovers?

Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to keep that flaky crust crisp.

Can I freeze French Dip Squares?

Yes! Once cooled, slice into squares and wrap them tightly. Reheat in the oven straight from the freezer at 350°F until warmed through.

What can I serve with these?

They’re great with a simple green salad or roasted veggies. Or, let’s be honest—they’re perfectly fine all by themselves!

Instructions

Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Layer the Base:
Unroll one can of crescent roll dough into the prepared dish, pressing seams together to form a smooth bottom layer.
Add the Filling:
Layer the deli roast beef evenly over the dough, then top with Swiss cheese.
Make the Flavor Drizzle:
In a small bowl, mix melted butter, dry onion soup mix, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Drizzle evenly over the cheese layer.
Top and Seal:
Unroll the second can of crescent rolls and lay it over the top, pinching seams and edges to seal.
Bake:
Bake for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown and flaky. If the top browns too fast, cover loosely with foil.
Cool and Slice:
Let cool for 5–10 minutes before cutting into squares for clean slices.
Make the Dipping Sauce:
While baking, heat beef broth and Worcestershire sauce in a small saucepan. Season to taste and serve warm alongside the squares for dipping.

Notes

For extra flavor, add sautéed onions or mushrooms between the beef and cheese layers.
To make ahead: assemble, cover, and refrigerate for up to 6 hours before baking.
Reheat leftovers in the oven to keep the crust crisp.
Great for parties, game nights, or an easy make-ahead dinner.
