Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet
One 13.8-ounce tube refrigerated pizza dough, such as Pillsbury
6 ounces processed cheese, such as Velveeta, cut into twenty-four 1/2-inch squares
2/3 cup baking soda
Pretzel salt, or other coarse salt, for topping
Spicy mustard, for dipping

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack to the top third position and preheat to 450 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Press and stretch the dough into an 11-by-16-inch rectangle. Cut the rectangle into twenty-four 2 1/2-inch squares.
  • Put a piece of cheese in the center of a square. Pinch two opposing corners of the dough together over the cheese. Do the same with the other two corners to create a bundle. Pinch the folded sides together to secure the cheese. Repeat with the remaining dough and cheese.
  • Heat 6 cups water in a medium saucepan and over high heat. Whisk in the baking soda and bring to a boil. Working in batches, boil the dumplings 30 seconds. Transfer them to the prepared baking sheet seam-side up and quickly sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake the dumplings, rotating halfway through, until dark brown, about 10 minutes. Serve with spicy mustard.

The dumplings were a bit dry. I think I would have preferred a more moist dumpling.

These dumplings were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have preferred a less salty dumpling.

The cheese sauce was a bit bland. I would have liked it to be more flavorful.

These dumplings were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter dumpling.
