Nothing screams comfort food like Sicilian pizza rolls. Perfect for a family movie night, school snack or a creative twist (literally) on a good old fashioned slice of pizza, these roles are a crowd pleaser. Stuff full of gooey mozzarella and your favorite pizza toppings, serve fresh, or freeze for a later date. Very similar to making cinnamon rolls, we recommend using a cast iron skillet to brown the rolls to crispy perfection.
