Ingredients

– 1 package of pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
– 1 cup pizza sauce
– 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
– ½ cup sliced pepperoni (or other preferred toppings)
– ½ cup diced bell peppers
– ¼ cup black olives, sliced
– 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
– Olive oil (for brushing)
– Flour (for dusting)


Instructions

Making Pizza Roses for Valentine’s Day is easy with these step-by-step instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Dough: Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
3. Cut the Dough: Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into strips, approximately 2 inches wide.
4. Add Sauce: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each dough strip.
5. Layer the Cheese: Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
6. Add Toppings: Place slices of pepperoni, bell peppers, and olives on top of the cheese, distributing them evenly.
7. Fold the Strips: Fold each strip of dough in half lengthwise, enclosing the toppings inside.
8. Roll the Strips: Starting from one end, roll the folded strip into a tight spiral, forming a rose shape.
9. Arrange in Muffin Tin: Place each rose into a greased muffin tin, ensuring they are snug but not overly packed.
10. Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush the tops of the pizza roses with olive oil and sprinkle Italian seasoning over them.
11. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the roses are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
12. Cool and Serve: Allow the pizza roses to cool slightly before removing them from the muffin tin.

With these steps, you’ll have beautiful Pizza Roses ready to delight your guests!
