Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

One 8-ounce tube refrigerated rolled crescent dough
1/3 cup prepared pizza sauce, plus more for dipping
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
24 slices pepperoni
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 large fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Unroll the crescent dough and separate the triangles along the perforated lines. Cut the triangles in half lengthwise so that you have 16 triangles.
  • Overlap 2 pieces of parchment to make a 24-inch-long piece. Arrange the crescent triangles lengthwise in a long row on top of the parchment, with the pointy ends upright and the flat ends overlapping just slightly (the row should be as long as the parchment paper). Gently press the overlapping pieces of dough together so to seal.
  • Spread the pizza sauce over the thickest part of the strip of dough (about 1 1/2-inches). Sprinkle the cheese over the sauce and top with a layer of pepperoni.
  • Fold the pointy ends of the dough over top of the pepperoni tucking them under the dough to enclose the filling. Gently curve the top end of the dough to the left to make a candy cane shape that is the length of the back of a baking sheet. Transfer the parchment onto the back of a baking sheet. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top of the dough. Bake until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes. Tuck the basil leaves into the candy cane to make a bow. Serve with more sauce for dipping.

Tips:

  • Quality Ingredients: Always use the best quality ingredients you can find, as they will make a big difference in the final product.
  • Fresh Dough: Making your own pizza dough from scratch is always the best option, as it will give you a much tastier and more authentic pizza. However, if you are short on time, you can use a pre-made dough from the store.
  • Thin and Crispy: The key to a great candy pizza is to make sure the dough is thin and crispy. This will help it to hold all of the toppings without getting soggy.
  • Don't Overload: It's important not to overload your candy pizza with toppings, as this will make it difficult to cook evenly. A few well-chosen toppings are all you need.
  • Bake at a High Temperature: Candy pizzas should be baked at a high temperature, around 450°F (230°C). This will help to get the crust nice and crispy.
  • Watch It Closely: Candy pizzas can burn easily, so it's important to keep an eye on them while they are baking.

Conclusion:

Candy pizzas are a fun and easy way to satisfy your sweet tooth. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and unique treat that everyone will love. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet, give candy pizza a try!
