Cheesy Pepperoni Roll-Ups - featured image

Warm, flaky rolls filled with gooey melted cheese and savory pepperoni, perfect for parties, game nights, or a cozy night in.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 20 slices pepperoni (or turkey pepperoni)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
  2. Unroll the crescent dough onto a flat surface. Separate it into triangles as indicated on the packaging.
  3. Sprinkle a pinch of garlic powder and Italian seasoning over each triangle.
  4. Place 2-3 pepperoni slices on the wider end of each triangle, followed by a generous sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.
  5. Roll each triangle tightly, starting from the wide end and working your way toward the tip. Tuck in any cheese that spills out.
  6. Arrange the roll-ups on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one to ensure even cooking.
  7. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with a pinch of garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Use a pastry brush to coat the tops of the roll-ups lightly.
  8. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the buttered roll-ups for an extra cheesy finish.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the roll-ups are golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
  10. Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Serve warm for maximum gooeyness!

Notes

[‘Don’t overfill the roll-ups to prevent them from bursting open during baking.’, ‘Pinch the dough tightly to seal the edges and keep the filling inside.’, ‘Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.’, ‘Keep an eye on the oven during the last few minutes of baking to avoid burning.’, ‘You can assemble the roll-ups ahead of time and refrigerate them for up to 12 hours before baking.’]
