Great recipe…kids and wife loved it. Stupid easy to make.

  • 2 package Hawaiian dinner rolls (12 count) *SEE NOTE 1
  • 1.5 cup pizza sauce
  • 4 cups pizza cheese *SEE NOTE 2
  • 48 slices pepperoni *SEE NOTE 3

  • 2 tbsp. parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 2 tsp. garlic salt

  • Top with the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese.
  • Place the top of the sandwiches on top.

  • Brush over the rolls with a pastry brush
  • Cover with foil and bake for 15 to 20 minutes until heated and all the cheese is melted.

NOTES: 1) Get the sweet rolls, not the savory rolls…there is a difference. I used King’s Hawaiian Sweet rolls in a 24 pack for my 4 person family. 2) Listen, GOOD pizza cheese is a mix of mozzarella and provolone and possibly romano or parmesan if you like. Don’t skimp. Buy good cheese 3) That seems like alot more pepperoni than it is. It’s basically just a package of pepperoni. You could also use other items like precooked sausage, or caramelized onions like I did. Sky’s the limit here.
