PEPPERONI ROLLS
My mother made the pepperoni rolls for me when I was growing up. I loved pepperoni and would walk around the house munching on stick pepperoni. One she made the rolls for me as a snack and I feel in love with them. If you like, add some chopped-up veggies to the rolls. -Wendy Steiner, Suwanee, Georgia

Steps:
- Dissolve 1/2 teaspoon sugar in 1 cup of warm water in a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast over the water and let stand for 5 minutes.
- Mix flour, 3/4 cup sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the yeast mixture, beaten eggs, and melted butter. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
- Lightly oil a large bowl, then place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
- Punch down the dough, and divide it into 20 equal pieces about the size of a golf ball. Using your hands, flatten each piece into a small rectangle about 4 inches square. Place 3 slices of pepperoni down the center of each dough square, overlapping the slices. Place another row of 3 slices next to the first. Roll the dough around the pepperoni slices, pinch the edges closed, and place the rolls on the prepared cookie sheet.
- Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 14 to 16 minutes, until the bottoms are lightly browned and the tops are barely golden.

Tips
1. **Choose the Right Pepperoni:** Opt for high-quality pepperoni that is made with real meat and spices. Avoid those with fillers or artificial ingredients. 2. **Slice Pepperoni Thinly:** This will ensure that the pepperoni cooks evenly and gets crispy in the oven. Use a sharp knife or a food processor fitted with a slicing blade. 3. **Arrange Pepperoni in a Single Layer:** Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Make sure the pepperoni slices are not touching each other so that they can crisp up properly. 4. **Bake at a High Temperature:** This will help to achieve crispy pepperoni. Aim for a temperature of 400°F (200°C) or higher. 5. **Watch the Cooking Time Closely:** Pepperoni can quickly go from perfectly crispy to overcooked. Keep an eye on the pepperoni and remove it from the oven as soon as it reaches your desired level of crispiness.Conclusion
