Pizza Puffs

Sunday nights are appetizer nights at our little house.  Finger foods are just fun and cute, and they're easy to eat in front of the tv catching up on my shows.  Look how cute these little guys are!  All gooey and cheesy!  

You can dip them in marinara sauce or Ranch dressing would be really good (mental note).  

Don't you like to dip your pizza in ranch dressing?? Yeah it's good!

Ingredients:

• 1 can pizza dough (such as Pillsbury)
• 4 oz. mozzarella cheese, cubed
• pepperoni slices

For the topping:

• olive oil
• Italian seasoning
• grated parmesan cheese

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400˚ F.  Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate.  Divide the pizza dough into 20-24 roughly equal sized pieces.  Take one of the dough pieces, top with a cube of cheese and a slice or two of pepperoni.  Pull the edges of the dough around the fillings and pinch closed.  Place seam-side down in the baking dish.  Repeat with the remaining dough pieces.
Lightly brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil.  Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese.  Bake for 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.  Serve warm, with dipping sauce as desired.
