Step 1
Enjoy!
Step 2
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese melts, about 15 minutes.
Step 3
Without separating the individual rolls, cut the entire slab of rolls in half horizontally using a serrated knife. Place bottom layer of rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Set top layer of rolls aside.
Step 4
Sprinkle bottom layer of rolls evenly with half of the cheese mixture; top evenly with half of pepperoni and half of the sauce. Repeat layers once.
Step 5
Meanwhile, combine butter, Parmesan, garlic powder, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning in a small saucepan; cook over medium, stirring occasionally, until butter melts, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
Step 6
Remove rolls from oven, and add top layer of rolls; brush top of rolls evenly with butter mixture. Return to preheated oven, and bake until rolls are golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes.
Step 7
Separate the rolls, and serve immediately.
Step 8
Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment, and place a cooling rack on baking sheet. Spray rack with cooking spray.
Step 9
Stir mozzarella, Italian cheese blend, basil, pepper, and 1 ½ teaspoons of the Italian seasoning together in a small bowl until combined. Set aside.
Step 10
Stir pizza sauce and pesto together in another small bowl. Set aside.
