Ingredients
Scale
Pizza Rolls
- 1 package refrigerated pizza dough
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Dipping Sauce
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking the rolls.
- Prepare Dough: Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough on a clean, flat surface to an even thickness. Use a brush to evenly apply the melted butter over the surface of the dough.
- Add Garlic and Parmesan: Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the buttered dough, followed by a generous layer of grated Parmesan cheese to add robust flavor.
- Add Mozzarella Cheese: Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the garlic and Parmesan layers, ensuring good coverage for a cheesy bite.
- Roll and Slice: Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape, starting from one edge. Once rolled, slice the log into 1-inch wide rounds to form individual pizza rolls.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place each sliced roll onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart to allow for expansion and even cooking.
- Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Serve Warm: Remove the rolls from the oven and serve them warm with the marinara sauce for dipping, enhancing their savory flavor.
Notes
- Ensure the pizza dough is fully thawed before rolling for easier handling.
- You can substitute the marinara sauce with any other favorite dipping sauce like ranch or garlic butter.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle some dried Italian herbs or red pepper flakes on top before baking.
- These rolls can be reheated in the oven for a few minutes to retain their crispness.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and consume within 2 days for best freshness.
