Let’s Make it Together
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grab a baking sheet and line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup. This will be your canvas where culinary magic happens!
Prepare the Pizza Dough: Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface until it’s about 1/4 inch thick. Aim for a rectangular shape so you can cut it into perfect squares later.
Add Sauce and Cheese: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about an inch around the edges. Sprinkle shredded cheese generously on top—don’t skimp; we want cheesy goodness!
Load Up with Toppings: Distribute your selected toppings evenly across the cheese. Remember, more is more when it comes to pizza rolls! Go wild with pepperoni slices or colorful veggies.
Roll It Up!: Starting from one edge, carefully roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Don’t worry if some toppings peek out; that adds character!
Crumble Those Doritos!: Place your crushed Doritos into a bowl. Roll each pizza log in cooking spray before rolling through the crumbled Doritos until fully coated—this is where the magic happens!
Bake Until Golden Brown: Cut each roll into bite-sized pieces and lay them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Your kitchen will smell heavenly during this time!
Once they’re out of the oven, allow them to cool slightly before serving—you want those cheesy insides not to burn anyone’s mouth off! Trust me; waiting is hard but worth every second when you finally take that first bite.
These Doritos-Crusted Pizza Rolls are more than just food; they’re an experience filled with laughter, joy, and maybe even a tiny bit of grease (the good kind!). Enjoy sharing them with friends or savoring them solo while binge-watching your favorite show—it’s all good!
