Kora’s birthday is in December and we recently had a party for her. I was excited to try out a few new recipes at the party. Having Kora’s birthday party early in the month gives us the chance to put some of the recipes we want to make for Christmas through a trial run. This way if we make something that’s not a hit we can either adjust it or toss it out altogether. If we’ve made something everyone loves then we look forward to making it again in just a few weeks. This was the case with these Christmas Tree Pull Apart Pepperoni Rolls.
These rolls were simple to make, ready in minutes, and full of fantastic pizza flavor. When we brought them to the table everyone complimented how festive it was and they couldn’t wait to dive in.
Guests could pull the rolls apart which made them easy to eat and I served them with pizza sauce for dipping. These rolls are great as either an appetizer or part of a main meal. I also think they would be wonderful with a spoonful of pizza sauce inside each one as well and I look forward to trying that next time.
This recipe is perfect for holiday parties and are sure to be greeted with lots of smiles when served. Enjoy!
