Instructions
Creating Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Rolls is simple when you follow these steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet by greasing it lightly with cooking spray.
2. Unroll Dough: Carefully unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface. You should have two long rectangles of dough.
3. Seal the Joints: Pinch the seams of the dough together to create a solid rectangle.
4. Add Cheese and Pepperoni: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough. Then, layer the pepperoni slices on top. If desired, sprinkle Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor.
5. Roll It Up: Starting from one end, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Make sure to keep everything inside.
6. Slice the Rolls: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled dough into 1-inch thick pieces. You should have about 10-12 rolls.
7. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the pizza rolls cut side up on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them out evenly.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
9. Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
10. Serve with Sauce: Serve hot with pizza sauce for dipping.
