Ryan's Pepperoni rolls

I just love pepperoni rolls.  But when I get them when we go out, they seem too greasy and all.  But, Ry makes a super good one.  I love 'em.  Last week we taught Tessa how to make them.



Ingredients
1 small bag frozen dinner rolls (12 count)
1 bag pepperoni
8 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/8 cup flour
2 tbsp butter, melted
garlic powder

1.  Thaw dough according to label on package.
2.  Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
3.  Place flour on counter and flatten dough.   Place 3 pieces pepperoni on roll and enough cheese to cover pepperoni (about 1 tbsp).
4.  Roll pepperoni and cheese inside dough and seal all edges (very important).  Then place on a cookie sheet or stone.
5.  Put pan of warm water in oven (for moisture) and place cookie sheet of rolls above it.  Let raise in oven for 7 minutes.
6.  Remove pan of water and raise temperature to 350 degrees F.
7.  Bake about 8 minutes until tops are golden brown.
8.  Baste with butter and sprinkle with garlic powder.

Serve warm and goes especially well with the pastini.
