Quick Pizza Melts

Pizza toppings are baked inside flaky crescent layers, and then sliced into triangles perfect for dipping in pizza sauce or ranch dressing. Our favorite dip for these melts is ranch dressing with blue cheese crumbles.

These certainly live up to their name. They are fast and tasty. I made them for dinner a couple of nights ago, and paired them with with a salad, and waalaa! I only had one can of crescent rolls on hand, so i halfed the recipe, which was perfect for just the two of us. The leftovers heated well too! I will definately keep these in mind for a tasty fast dinner in the future.

    This was another tasty treat by Brandess. The simplicity, quickness and ease of this dish, just ensures that it will be made again and again. We enjoyed this very much, dipped in sour cream Ranch...yummy! I only made half the recipe (there was only two of us) so I used one can of roll mix...It made eight large peices...truly great, I see lots of variations in the future...Kudos...Kato

    I am giving this a 5 for easy preparation great taste and even great presentation. I was abit nervous when rolling out the dough as mine wasn't formed totally like a rectangle! When finished cooking, its best to wait a solid 10 mins before cutting the pizza melts and you can trim the edges when you're done. Very impressive!

    the flavor was quite yummy. however the bottom layer of dough did not get crispy and ended up being really soggy. Next time I make it I will definetly skip the step of greasing the cookie sheet.
