"Pepperollies"

  

I borrowed a recipe idea from another blogger and felt the need to share after I made them (you can visit her, and this recipe, at http://www.lovelindseyblog.com/). She was not joking when she said how amazing these lil thingies are! I used Flaky Buttery Pillsbury crescent rolls which made them a little drier than perhaps they should be however they were a great stray from the usual lunch. Maybe next time I will brush a little butter on the roll before baking or maybe I will add a little sauce inside the roll. These are the perfect after school snack! 

Are you ready for some easy, cheap, and totally awesome pepperoni roll do-hickeys??!

Here’s what you need:

1 roll of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls (usually come 8 in a roll)

4 pieces of string cheese – Cut each one in half to give 8 in total

Approximately 32 slices of pepperoni

Other pizza toppers if desired

Ranch or pizza sauce for dipping

Baking sheet (I used my favorite air bake pan)

Get ready to roll!

1.      Separate each crescent from the roll and place 3-4 pepperoni slices on the dough, starting at the narrow, pointy end.

2.      Place a piece of string cheese at the wide end of the dough and start to roll.

3.      Roll each one and, if you added more goodies other than pepperoni, curve the dough so it keeps everything in. 

4.      Bake in preheated (this is the key to evenly cooking everything!) oven at 375° for about 15-17 minutes. Don’t these look yummy?!

5. Bake until they are a delicious golden brown and get ready for some awesomeness! Don’t forget to heat your sauce – You can’t dip hot food into cold sauces, yuck. (There should be a law against that!) 

    

6.      ENJOY!!
