- 1 lb. refrigerated pizza dough divided
- 1/2 c. sliced pepperoni finely chopped
EGG WASH:
- 1 lg. egg
- 1 T. water

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- PIZZA ROLLS: Cut mozzarella sticks into 1-inch pieces and set aside. Finely chop the sliced pepperoni.
- On a well-floured surface, divide the pizza dough in half. Stretch and roll each half into a 6x10-inch rectangle, then cut into 2-inch squares (you should have 15 squares per rectangle for a total of 30 squares).
- Wrap the dough squares around each piece of mozzarella and some chopped pepperoni forming a tightly sealed ball. Place the dough balls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet in the shape of a football (they should be touching).
- EGG WASH: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water then brush over the dough balls. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden.
- TOPPING: Meanwhile, whisk the melted butter, parmesan cheese and herbs together. Brush over the baked pizza rolls.
- Thinly slice 2 mozzarella sticks lengthwise to create laces. Lay them over the rolls.
- Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, Enjoy!
