Pizza Rolls

 

Here is one more yummy snack idea for the "Pizza" themed week of BM #43. I had used the dough that I posted on yesterday's post to prepare these yummy rolls which were a hit at home. Homemade or store bought pizza dough can be used. Even puff pastry sheet / bread dough can be substituted for the pizza dough. One can add their favorite toppings and seasonings. I am just giving the general directions below.

Ingredients:

Pizza dough

Pizza sauce

Mozzarella cheese

Any pizza seasonings (optional)

Cornmeal for dusting

Method:

* On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle, make dimples with your fingers and brush the surface with olive oil.

* Then spread pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese and seasonings if

using. Roll it into a tight log.

 

(At this point I chilled  the log for about 20 minutes as my pizza dough was very soft and I had read somewhere that it would be easy to cut the rolls without them falling apart when chilled.)

* Preheat the oven to 350 deg F. Sprinkle cornmeal over the baking sheets.

* Cut the log into one inch slices and place on the cornmeal sprinkled sheet.

 

* Place them in the oven and bake until slightly browned or for about 15 - 20 minutes.
