Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven 400º
  • Remove dough from refrigerator about 30 minutes before baking and let it come to room temperature.
    16 oz pizza dough
  • Heavily spray a metal muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray
  • Lightly press pizza dough out into a large rectangle or oval shape.
  • Using a glass or a biscuit cutter - cut the pizza dough into 12 circles. Try and use something between 3-4" so it's as close to Little Caesars version as possible.
  • Lightly press circles into muffin tins so that they come up on the sides and have a pocket in the middle
  • Add 1 tbsp pizza sauce into each pizza cup.
    1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • Layer 1 slice pepperoni - 1 tbsp mozzarella cheese - 2 slices pepperoni - 1 tbsp mozzarella cheese on top of pizza sauce and press down to fit into cup.
    6 oz pepperoni, 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • Melt butter and mix together with minced garlic, Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese
    4 tbsp butter, 2 tsp minced garlic, 2 tsp Italian seasoning, 2 tsp Parmesan cheese
  • Pour melted butter onto all pizza cups
  • Bake pizza cups at 400º for 13 minutes and then on Low Broil for 3-4 min until golden brown (watch it closely on broil). Skip the temptation to broil on high - it can go from perfect to burnt in 30 seconds
  • Remove from oven and then remove from muffin pan.
  • Serve and dip into marinara sauce or make a little extra of that garlic buttery sauce!
