Ingredients
  

  • 1 tube refrigerated pizza dough 13.8 oz
  • ½ cup pizza sauce Plus more for dipping

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet Or 9x9 dish

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Unroll dough into a rectangle on a floured surface.
  2. Spread pizza sauce thinly over dough; top with mozzarella, parmesan, and pepperoni.
  3. Roll dough tightly into a log; slice into 12 even rolls using a serrated knife.
