I have made these rolls the first time for the Photo Swap #3. I have liked the idea of rolling pepperoni slices into yeast dough from the beginning. The yeast dough here is sweetened and together with the salty flavor and pepperiness of the slices is a delicious combination. I have followed the recipe step by step without any problems. Baking time was in my case a little shorter (20 minutes). And yes, you should switch the cookie sheets as suggested. The rolls came out golden brown. The yeast dough was fluffily. If you are not fixed to the name you can also use bacon as an alternativ filling. Or try a vegetarian version. Or a sweet version with a thin layer of jam or peanut butter. How about a hot version with a spicy relish? The field is open to your imagination. With a cold glas of beer these pepperoni rolls can be the heaven on earth. -
Made these today to go with dinner and freeze the rest. Well after sampling, dinner and some not so late night snacking my family of four has possished off more than half of the 60 rolls that I got out of this. DH and DD want pack some for their lunches tomorrow. So I guess I will just leave what little wil be left in the fridge for snacking and the freezer will have to wait. I tink I will make another batch this weekend but will take some cheese sticks and quarter them the long way and then half them and roll these cheese stick pieces in with the rolls. Probably gonna have to bake after everyone goes to bed so that I will have some left to put in the freezer this time. Thanks for the great recipe.

Very good. These remind me of Stromboli. We left the sesame seeds off. Thanks for the recipe. -
OMG, these were the best pepperoni rolls! The family loved them. I followed the directions and made ½ recipe. I did add a bit more pepperoni & mozzarella cheese. My rolls came out a bit larger. The reheated them in the microwave according to reheating bread. We dipped them I my homemade sauce which consisted of 16 oz tomato toe sauce, a bit of sugar, oregano 1 tsp of Italian spices and some garlic. Kudos to you! -
Very tasty recipe. They froze very well. Thanks!
