• 2. Roll out to a 1/4 inch round. Using a cookie cutter, cut out twelve circles. Oil a 12 cup cupcake pan and place a circle in each, pressing down lightly.
• 3. Saute the onions, green peppers and mushrooms in a bit of oil until mostly done.
• 4. Place a tsp of sauce in the center of each dough circle. Place one pepperoni slice on top of each. Top with a tsp of the toppings.Finish with a tablespoon of shredded mozzarella.

• Cover with saran wrap and allow to rest 10 minutes to make for easier rolling - skip this step if you're in a hurry.
• Grease a piece of parchment or wax paper about 12" square and set a circle of dough in the middle. Cover with another lightly greased piece. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough very thin - 1/8 inch or less.
