  5. 1 tsp of dried Italian seasoning

Preheat Oven to 375.

You want to make sure that your oven is warmed up to 375.

Open the Can of Croissants and Unroll Them in the Pan.

When unrolling the croissants, they don't have to be perfect. You just want to make sure you can roll them back up.

Separate Your Croissants.

Separating the croissants is a must so they can be easy to handle once done.

In the Bottom Long Area of the Croissants, Add Your Pizza Sauce.

You can put as much pizza sauce as you want in them, I just choose to one part.

Add Your Mozzarella Cheese on Top of the Pizza Sauce.

For the cheese I grate my own, but you can use preceded to make this an even easier meal. I find that grating it myself, the cheese is even cheesier.

Get 3 Pepperoni's and Layer Them on Top of the Cheese.

Again, you can add as many pepperoni's as you want on this step if you want it meatier. I choose to only do 3.

Roll the Croissant's Up Then Place in Over for 13 Minutes.

On this step, you want to try to roll your croissant up kind of tight so that the filling doesn't spill out. You will need a good grip on it. Cook time may vary depending on your oven but 13 minutes worked perfect for me.

While Croissants Are Cooking, Warm Butter, Garlic Powder, and in Dried Italian Seasoning in Microwave in Bowl and Mix.

You can melt your butter on the stove or in the microwave. I chose the microwave because it was just easier for me. After warming the butter, I added my dried seasoning and garlic powder.

Once Pizza Dunks Are Done, Base the Dunks With the Butter Mixture and Enjoy!

Get your pizza dunks out the oven then base with butter mixture. If you don't want to the mixture, you can skip this step.

Dunk in Ranch or Marinara for a Delightful Snack or Eat Them Plain!

I gave a choice of ranch or marinara sauce to dunk these in. You can also eat them plain and they are still amazing.
