Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

Roll out crescent roll dough. Brush on butter (reserving a tablespoon for topping). Spread on minced garlic, evenly.

Cut crescent roll dough into 1 1/2" strips. Roll one strip tightly and lay in the center of baking pan, cut side up. 

Continue to add strips around in a swirl pattern from the inside out, tucking in mozzarella pieces as you swirl. 

Brush on remaining butter and sprinkle with salt, chopped parsley, and parmesan cheese. 

Bake for 25 minutes. Loosely cover with aluminum foil, and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
