Ingredients
- 25 frozen Rhodes rolls, (see thawing options included in instructions)
- 1 jar (14 ounces) pizza sauce, or homemade sauce, divided
- 3 cups mini pepperoni slices, divided
- 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into 25 equal-sized cubes, divided
Garlic Butter
- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
- ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ cup (25 g) parmesan cheese, grated
- parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Remove the Rhodes rolls from the package. Place frozen rolls onto a large greased baking sheet. Cover with greased plastic wrap.
- To thaw the rolls, you can either place them on the counter to thaw and rise or let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight.Countertop Thaw: Place the baking sheet in a warm location and allow them to thaw and rise in the pan. They should be doubled in size. From frozen, that will take between 3-5 hours.Overnight Thaw: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning, take the rolls out of the refrigerator and place them in a warm location to rise until doubled (about 1-2 hours).
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Working one roll at a time, flatten the roll on the counter to about 3 inches wide. Place 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce in the center, followed by 1 tablespoon of mini pepperoni slices and 1 cube of mozzarella cheese. Wrap dough around the filling, pinching the edges to seal and form a ball. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Arrange the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet in a circular pattern.
- Bake until golden brown, about 30-34 minutes.
- Set the baked rolls aside to cool slightly.
- In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese.
- Brush the garlic butter mixture over the tops of the rolls.
- Garnish with parsley. Serve with the remaining pizza sauce for dipping.
