Refrigerated dough keeps these snacks fuss-free. They're great all by themselves...or try them with a simple antipasto of peppers, olives and cheeses.—Josephine D. Piro, Easton, Pennsylvania

Pepperoni Cheese Twists Recipe

Prep: 25 min. Bake: 10 min.

Yield: 14 Servings

25 10 35

Ingredients

3 tablespoons finely chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes plus 1 teaspoon oil from the jar
1/3 cup finely chopped pepperoni
1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1 teaspoon water
Dash garlic powder
Dash pepper
1 tube (13.8 ounces) refrigerated pizza crust

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the tomatoes and their oil, pepperoni, cheese, rosemary, water, garlic powder and pepper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 14-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Spread tomato mixture lengthwise over half of dough.
Fold dough over filling: press edges to seal. Cut widthwise into fourteen 1-in.-wide strips. Fold each strip in half; twist two or three times. Place 1 in. apart on a greased baking sheet.
Bake at 425° for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 14 cheese twists.
