The cast-iron skillet browns these delicious rolls to perfection. My family can't get enough. Use whatever pizza toppings your family likes best. —Dorothy Smith, El Dorado, Arkansas

Ingredients

1 loaf (1 pound) frozen pizza dough, thawed
1/2 cup pasta sauce
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
1 cup coarsely chopped pepperoni (about 64 slices)
1/2 pound bulk Italian sausage, cooked and crumbled
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Minced fresh basil, optional
Crushed red pepper flakes, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 16x10-in. rectangle. Brush with pasta sauce to within 1/2 in. of edges.

Sprinkle with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, sausage and Parmesan. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Cut into 8 slices. Place in a greased 9-in. cast-iron skillet or greased 9-in. round baking pan, cut side down.
Bake 20 minutes; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Bake until golden brown, 5-10 minutes longer. If desired, serve with minced fresh basil and crushed red pepper flakes.

Test Kitchen Tips

If you have a favorite homemade or store-bought fresh dough, swap it for the frozen dough.

Give rolls a little room in the pan to stretch their wings. They will expand in the oven.

Prefer a crisper pizza crust? Bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes.
