Ingredients

• 1 tube Refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 24 pieces Pepperoni slices
• 4 sticks Mozzarella cheese sticks
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Dried Italian seasoning
• 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cups Marinara sauce (for dipping, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Unroll the refrigerated crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangular pieces along the perforations.

Step 3

Cut each mozzarella cheese stick into 6 equal-sized pieces, giving you a total of 24 pieces of cheese.

Step 4

Place 3 pepperoni slices and one piece of mozzarella cheese at the wide end of each crescent roll triangle.

Step 5

Roll up the dough tightly, starting at the wide end, and tuck in the edges to seal the pepperoni and cheese inside.

Step 6

Place the rolled dough seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the garlic powder and Italian seasoning.

Step 8

Brush the melted butter mixture over the top of each roll and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and puffed up.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving with warm marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
