Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 8 minutes
Total Time: 8 minutes
Servings: 8 pizza crescent rolls

Ingredients

  • 1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls I used Pillsbury Original
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 24 slices pepperoni
  • 8 small pieces mozzarella cheese ½ inch cubes
  • 1-2 Tablespoons butter melted
  • Prepared pizza sauce for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Unroll the crescent rolls and separate so that there are 8 triangles of dough.
  • Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of Italian seasoning entirely over one side of each dough triangle. At the widest part of the triangle, add 3 slices of pepperoni over top the seasoning (overlapping so that they fit within the dough's edges). Place 1 cube of cheese in the center of the pepperoni.
  • Starting at the widest end of the dough, tightly roll up the crescents and seal all the edges to prevent cheese from escaping while baking.
  • Place crescents on the prepared baking sheet and brush tops with melted butter.
  • Bake 6-8 minutes or until golden brown. Brush tops again with the remaining melted butter.
  • Warm up the pizza sauce in the microwave or on the stovetop. Serve crescents with the hot pizza sauce for dipping.
