Ingredients
- 12 balls frozen roll dough thawed (I like Rhode's brand)
- 1 package traditional or turkey pepperoni
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella or Italian blend cheese
- Any combination of your favorite vegetables or meats* optional
- 4 tablespoons melted butter or margarine
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Mix the melted butter, Parmesan, garlic powder and Italian seasoning in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Working with one ball of dough at a time, using a rolling pin or drinking glass, lightly flour the dough and roll to a 4-5 inch circle.
- Brush the dough with the butter mixture and add 2 pepperoni and 1 tablespoon of cheese to the center of the dough.
- Gather the edges together in the center and pinch the edges closed; forming a ball around the ingredients.
- Place on a greased cookie sheet with the seam side down.
- Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Brush the tops with any remaining butter mixture and sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese if desired.
- Bake at 350 for 15-19 minutes until the dough is golden and the cheese is melted.
- Serve with warm marinara on the side.
Notes
If adding vegetables, saute them lightly until just softened in a little butter before adding to your dough.
