ITALIAN MOZZARELLA ROLL-UPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment.
• Cut each slice of prosciutto into 4 pieces, each about 1 1/2 inches by 3 inches. Cut the roasted red pepper into 16 strips, each about 1/2 inch by 2 inches.
• Unroll the dough on a cutting board. Spread the pesto on the dough in an even layer. Cut the dough along the perforated lines to create 8 triangles. Cut each triangle in half to create 16 long, thin triangles.
• Lay a mozzarella stick across the bottom of the wide end of one of the triangles. Lay 1 strip of red pepper crosswise next to the mozzarella, then lay 1 piece of prosciutto over most of the remaining pesto layer. Starting at the wide end, roll up the dough tightly around the filling and place seam-side down on one of the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining dough, prosciutto, red pepper and mozzarella sticks.
• Bake until the dough is golden brown and cooked through and the mozzarella sticks are heated through, about 20 minutes. Serve warm with marinara and more pesto for dipping.

FRESH MOZZARELLA, TOMATO AND OLIVE PIZZA POCKETS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except dough.
• Divide dough into four equal pieces; roll each piece into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, roll one ball into a 7-inch round. Mound 1/4 of the filling on half the dough. Fold other dough half over the filling and pinch edges together to seal. Transfer pocket to prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
• With a sharp knife, cut several slits in top of each pastry. Bake pockets until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE YEAST DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• 1. Combine milk, water and butter and heat to 115 - 125 degrees. Place 1 cup flour, sugar, salt, egg and dry yeast in large bowl.
• 2. Add heated liquid and beat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Slowly stir in remaining 1 cup flour. (Dough will be sticky).**(See NOTE). Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface and knead until firm and smooth, about 10 minutes. Cover & let rest 10 minutes.
• 3. Divide dough into 12 equal balls. Flatten each ball into a circle, approximately 3-4" across. Place a mozzarella chunk in the middle and close up, pinching dough together to seal. Place in a well-greased muffin pan or on cookie sheet at least 1" apart, and put in warm place until doubled in size, about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes.
• 4. Brush tops with mixture of melted butter and olive oil. Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.
• 5. Preheat oven to 400. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until browned. **NOTE: The dough will be sticky and wet. Turn out onto well floured surface and use well floured hands to work with the dough, using extra flour as needed. Do not use too much, as you want to keep the dough soft. This creates a very light, fluffy roll.
