Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 55m

Yield 8 bones

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 ounces part-skim, low-moisture mozzarella
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon flaky salt
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 pound pizza dough, at room temperature
4 teaspoons whole milk ricotta
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Marinara sauce, warmed, for serving

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment. Cut the mozzarella into 1/2-by-1/2-by-2-inch-long sticks and set aside. Mix together the Parmesan, oregano, sesame seeds, red pepper flakes, salt and garlic together in a bowl; set aside.
  • Pat the pizza dough into a 16-by-8-inch rectangle with a long side facing you. Using a sharp knife or pizza wheel, cut the dough in half lengthwise. Quarter each piece so you have eight 4-by-4-inch squares. Spread 1/2 teaspoon ricotta in the middle of a square and place a piece of mozzarella on top. Fold the dough over the cheese to completely encase it. Starting from the center, pinch the seams closed, carefully pushing out any air as you go. Repeat with the remaining dough and cheese.
  • Working one at a time, put a piece of dough into the seasoning mixture and press down firmly to coat all sides. On a clean, dry work surface roll the dough gently but firmly into a torpedo shape that is about 10 inches long. Tie the dough into a knot at each end and place it seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pieces of stuffed dough. Brush with the butter and sprinkle on any remaining seasoning mix. Put in a warm place and let rise until puffy, about 30 minutes
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Transfer the bones to the oven and bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until golden brown all over, about 10 minutes. Serve warm with marinara sauce on the side.

Number Of Ingredients 5

14 oz store-bought pizza dough, 1 tube
4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
15 pieces presliced pepperoni
marinara sauce, or pizza sauce for dipping

  • Sprinkle 1 cup (100g) of cheese down the center of each dough strip. Reserve the last 1 cup (100g) of cheese for later.

3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
olive oil, to taste

Steps:

  • To a bowl or stand mixer, add the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let the yeast proof for 5-15 minutes in a warm place until it is bubbling.

  • Place string cheese into the edges of the dough, and fold the edges over the cheese, crimping the edges.
  • Brush the dough with olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially the cheese. Fresh, flavorful cheese will make a big difference in the taste of your pizza snacks.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. You can use a single type of cheese or a combination of cheeses. Some popular options include mozzarella, cheddar, Parmesan, and Gouda.
  • Make sure the pizza dough is cooked through before adding the cheese and other toppings. Otherwise, the cheese won't melt properly and the pizza snacks will be soggy.
