Parmesan Garlic Pizza Rolls

### Instructions:

#### 1. **Preheat the Oven:**
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray to prevent the pizza rolls from sticking.

#### 2. **Prepare the Pizza Dough:**
Roll out the refrigerated pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. You want the dough to be about 12 inches by 8 inches, but it doesn’t need to be perfect. Once the dough is rolled out, brush the surface with a light layer of olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic powder and dried Italian seasoning (if using). This will infuse the dough with extra flavor.

#### 3. **Add the Cheese:**
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, making sure to cover the entire surface. Follow with the grated Parmesan cheese. You can use a little more or less cheese depending on how cheesy you want your pizza rolls.

#### 4. **Roll Up the Dough:**
Carefully roll the dough up from one edge, making sure to keep the cheese tightly packed inside. Once fully rolled, pinch the edges to seal it and create a tight log.

#### 5. **Slice the Rolls:**
Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to slice the rolled dough into 1-inch pieces. Arrange the slices on your prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.

#### 6. **Prepare the Garlic Butter Coating:**
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic (or garlic powder), and a pinch of salt. Mix well. Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the top of each pizza roll. This will give them a rich, golden finish and infuse the rolls with irresistible garlic flavor.

#### 7. **Bake the Pizza Rolls:**
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the pizza rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t burn, as oven temperatures may vary.

#### 8. **Serve and Enjoy:**
Once the pizza rolls are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Drizzle any remaining garlic butter over the top and garnish with chopped fresh parsley for an added burst of color and freshness. Serve with a side of pizza sauce for dipping, and enjoy the cheesy, garlicky goodness!

### Tips for Success:

– **Cheese Variations:** While mozzarella and Parmesan are classic choices, you can experiment with other cheeses like provolone, cheddar, or even a spicy pepper jack for a fun twist.

– **Make it Spicy:** If you love a little heat, sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes or add a few slices of pepperoni to the filling before rolling up the dough.

– **Make Ahead:** You can prepare the pizza rolls ahead of time. Assemble the rolls, place them on the baking sheet, and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before baking. Just bake them straight from the fridge, but you might need to add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.

– **Dipping Sauces:** In addition to pizza sauce, these pizza rolls are also great with ranch dressing, marinara sauce, or even a creamy garlic dip for extra indulgence.
