DIRECTIONS:
1: Heat oven to 400°F. Unwrap string cheese, and cut a 2-inch slit along one side of each, leaving ends intact. Cut pepperoni slices in half, and insert 4 halves into each cut side of mozzarella sticks.
2: On large cutting board, unroll dough; cut short side into 12 equal strips. Starting at one end of mozzarella stick, wind one strip of crescent dough around cheese, completely covering cheese. Seal ends, and place on ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat for remaining dough and mozzarella sticks.
3: Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
Darlene’s Tips: You can skip the pepperoni if you want plain old crescent wrapped cheese sticks! Or you could use alternate meat like deli ham or turkey, even bologna or a hot dog. Some hot peppers would also be good for those who like spicy. Do whatever you want! Serve with a side of heated pizza sauce or marinara sause. Would also be good dipped in sour cream or bacon and horseradish dip (look for Heluva Good brand). Save on cheese by slicing one stick in half lengthwise and making two less-cheesy crescent wraps out of one stick. You could do the same to a hotdog.
