For the Pizza Bombs:

- ½ cup pizza sauce (plus extra for dipping)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cubed mozzarella)
- 24 slices of pepperoni (2 per pizza bomb)

For the Garlic Butter Topping:

- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven & Prepare Dough
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease a muffin tin for easy baking.
2. Flatten the Dough
- If using biscuit dough, separate it into individual pieces.
- If using pizza dough, roll it out and cut into 12 equal portions.
- Flatten each piece into a 3-4 inch circle to make room for the filling.
3. Fill with Pizza Goodness
- Spread 1 teaspoon of pizza sauce in the center of each dough circle.
- Add 2 slices of pepperoni and a generous pinch of mozzarella cheese.
- Sprinkle with a little oregano and red pepper flakes if you like extra flavor.
4. Seal the Pizza Bombs
- Carefully pull the edges of the dough up and pinch them together to seal the filling inside.
- Roll into a ball shape and place seam-side down on the baking sheet or in a muffin tin.
5. Brush with Garlic Butter & Bake
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Brush the tops of the pizza bombs with the garlic butter mixture.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
6. Serve & Enjoy!
- Let cool slightly before serving (the cheese inside will be hot!).
- Serve warm with extra pizza sauce or marinara for dipping.
