Looking for a super kid-friendly appetizer that’s easy to make, only requires a few easy to find ingredients, and requires no measuring" These little Pepperoni Pizza Poppers fit the bill.

Crescent Roll Dough

Crescent Roll Dough forms a delicious buttery crust for this bite-sized appetizer. I love using crescent roll dough in the kitchen for quick and easy recipes. You can use either tubes of crescent roll dough or crescent sheets.

How To Make Pepperoni Pizza Poppers

Start with a package of crescent rolls, cut them into small squares, mold into a mini muffin pan, dollop with a little cream cheese and pizza sauce, sprinkle with a touch of oregano, mozzarella cheese, and mini pepperonis, and pop in the oven. Ten minutes later, you have warm and buttery little bites of pizza goodness.
Cut each crescent dough rectangle into 4 pieces.

I made these recently along with a mess of pasta when my son had his tennis team over for dinner after practice. Cooking for 10 hungry teenagers is no easy task. After they ate, there was still some pasta left, but nary a pizza popper to be found. I should have stashed away a few for myself. (Note: Originally published May 9, 2013.)
