Mini Pizza Swirls With Garlic Sour Cream

Mini Pizza Swirls with Garlic Sour Cream are a tasty and fun appetizer or snack that combines the flavors of pizza with a creamy garlic dip. Here's a recipe to make these delicious treats:

Ingredients:

For the pizza swirls:

• 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
• 1/2 cup pizza sauce
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup sliced pepperoni or your favorite pizza toppings
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (optional)
• 1 tablespoon melted butter (for brushing)

For the garlic sour cream:

• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle, approximately 12x10 inches.
3. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Add the sliced pepperoni or your preferred pizza toppings on top of the cheese. Sprinkle dried Italian herbs (if desired) for extra flavor.
5. Starting from one of the longer edges, tightly roll up the puff pastry into a log shape. Cut the log into approximately 1-inch slices to create mini swirls.
6. Place the mini pizza swirls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart slightly. Brush the tops with melted butter.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes or until the swirls are puffed and golden brown.
8. While the pizza swirls are baking, prepare the garlic sour cream. In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, minced garlic, dried parsley, salt, and pepper until well combined. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
9. Once the pizza swirls are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
10. Serve the mini pizza swirls warm with the garlic sour cream dip on the side.

Enjoy these bite-sized, flavorful pizza swirls with a creamy and garlicky dip. They are perfect for parties, game nights, or any time you're craving a tasty snack.
