Ingredients
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 12 approx 1-3/4" diam. pepperoni
- 1 1/2 teaspoon dry Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 400 F degrees.

- Line large baking sheet with a silicone baking sheet or parchment paper. Place generous 2 tablespoon piles of cheese mixture on liner, spreading out into thin circle shape. Repeat with remaining cheese mixture leaving an inch between cheese piles.
- Bake for approximately 6 to 8 minutes in center rack. Watch closely, as edges start to brown, they can burn quickly. However, if you take out to early, cheese crisps will be soggy. Look for edges to be turning darker brown and remainder and center to be lightly browned before removing from oven.
