• 6 tablespoons butter
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder, divided
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 package (16 oz.) frozen bread dough dinner rolled, thawed
• 1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
• 1 1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 cup pizza sauce
• 1/4 cup (3/4 oz.) sliced pepperoni
• 2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil

Melt butter, 1/2 teaspoon garlic and red pepper flakes.  Cut rolls into thirds and roll into balls.  Dip balls in butter mixture; place along edge of a 10″ cast iron skillet, leaving center open.  Loosely stack remaining balls on top of bottom layer.  Cover and let rise until almost doubled, 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to  400 degrees.  Bake until beginning to brown, 15-18 minutes.

Combine cream cheese, 1 cup mozzarella, mayonnaise, seasoning and remaining garlic; spoon into center.  Layer with 1/4 cup mozzarella and pepperoni.  Brush rolls with remaining butter mixture; sprinkle with Parmesan.

Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes, covering loosely with foil.  Sprinkle with basil.
