Pepperoni String Cheese Roll UpsSource: adapted from Dinner With The Donnells

Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent roll dough
4 cheese sticks, halved
1 (3.5 ounce) package sliced pepperoni
optional – marinara or ranch sauce for dipping
Garlic Butter Glaze:
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasonings
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 Tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Take each triangle of crencent roll dough and place about 6 pepperoni on the bottom of the triangle. Place half of a cheese stick on top and roll up. Place seam side down on a cookie sheet and bake for 10-14 minutes or until golden brown.
While rolls are cooking, combine the melted butter, Italian seasonings, garlic powder and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl.
When rolls are done remove from the oven and brush with the garlic butter glaze. Serve with marinara or ranch for dipping.

(Really good. I halfed the cheese sticks again just so they will melt)

Pizza Dough Recipe

Pizza Dough

4 c all purpose flour (white)
1 ¼ c lukewarm water
1 packet active dry yeast or 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast
2 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
¼ c milk
Using mixing bowl add the flour and make a “well”, add 1 tsp salt and mix.
In liquid measuring cup add 1 tsp sugar to 1 ¼ cup lukewarm water stir then add yeast, stir and
set aside for 5 minutes to foam up.
Next mix the yeast water and ¼ c milk with 2 tbsp olive oil into the flour salt mixture. Stir with
wooden spoon or clean hands.
Knead the dough for 8 minutes on a floured surface until you have a smooth elastic rubbery
dough ball.
Set aside in a bowl, drizzle with olive oil to keep dough from drying out. Let sit covered lightly
for 30 – 60 minutes or until doubled.
This mix makes enough dough for 2 medium/large pizzas.
The dough can be used immediately or chilled overnight or even frozen. Bake at 500 degrees
for 11 minutes.
Best if baked on a pizza screen and pizza stone. The crust will not be as crispy if baked directly
on a pizza pan.
