Pepperoni Pizza Rolls Recipe

Forget those store-bought, freezer-aisle pizza bites (or at least forget them this once :D)--this homemade alternative is almost out of this world. I shared my first batch with a couple teenage girls and we gobbled them right up. We all decided they were amazing and should definitely served as an appetizer at any party. They are easy to eat--not at all messy--and customizable to your tastes. 

Oh! and I forgot to mention--they're just plain FUN! 

Pepperoni Pizza Rolls Recipe 

recipe adapted from Annie's Eats

Makes 24 pizza rolls

Ingredients

1/2 batch pizza dough (this or this) 

24 slices pepperoni

Approximately 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

for sprinkling-- freshly grated Parmesan cheese, basil, and garlic powder 

for dipping--1 cup marinara/pizza sauce, heated

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Using a large knife or a bench scraper/dough cutter, divide the dough into 24 equal portions. Working with your hands lightly floured, form each ball of dough into a thin round. Stop with pepper and a sprinkle of mozzarella. Carefully fold the edges up over the cheese and pinch to seal. Repeat until all rolls are finished. 

Place seam-side down in a greased 2 quart baking dish or deep dish pie pan. Brush lightly with water and sprinkle with Parmesan, basil and garlic. Bake for 20 minutes, until golden. 

Serve with a side of pizza sauce for dipping.
