  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  5. Allow the beef to cool for 5 minutes, then stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.

  7. Place approximately 3 tablespoons of the beef and cheese mixture onto the wide end of each dough triangle.
  8. Roll the dough towards the point, tucking in the edges to secure the filling, and place onto the prepared baking sheet with the point side down.
  9. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with dried parsley.
  10. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
