Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to the most heavenly midnight craving crusher ever – Crispy Parmesan-Crusted Pizza Rolls! Trust me, once you try these bad boys, those basic microwave snacks will be ancient history.
Picture this: It’s midnight, you’re binge-watching your favorite show, and your stomach starts doing that embarrassing growl thing. Been there, done that! These pizza rolls are about to become your new BFF.
What you’ll need (because we’re fancy like that):
– Wonton wrappers (found in most grocery stores, usually near the produce)
– Mozzarella cheese, shredded
– Pepperoni, chopped
– Italian seasoning
– Marinara sauce
– Grated Parmesan
– 1 egg (for egg wash)
– Vegetable oil for frying
– Your favorite pizza toppings (go wild!)
Now, let’s get cooking!
1. Lay out those wonton wrappers like you’re dealing cards (but please, don’t actually gamble with them 😉)
2. Add a small spoonful of mozzarella, pepperoni, and your chosen toppings in the center
3. Brush the edges with egg wash (this is like glue, but edible)
4. Fold into triangles and seal those edges like you’re keeping a juicy secret
Okay girlies (and guys), here’s where the magic happens! If you’re loving this recipe so far, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for daily recipe inspo that’ll make your taste buds dance!
1. Heat oil to 350°F (or until a small piece of wrapper sizzles)
2. Carefully drop these babies in and fry until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes)
3. While they’re still hot, sprinkle with Parmesan and Italian seasoning
4. Serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping
Pro tip: Make a bunch and freeze them for future midnight emergencies. You’ll thank me later!
The outside is perfectly crispy, the inside is melty and gooey, and honestly? It’s better than any late-night drive-thru run (and you’re still in your PJs – winning!).
