How They Get So Crispy and Cheesy

Baking the cheese forms golden, lacy crisps with a satisfying crunch, while the pepperoni becomes perfectly crisp and provides that unmistakable pizza flavor. In just about 10 minutes, you’ll have a tray of homemade chips that beat any bagged snack.
Easy Assembly for Pizza Chips Perfection
Simply arrange mounds of shredded mozzarella cheese on a lined baking sheet, top each with a pepperoni slice, and bake until the edges bubble and turn golden. Cool briefly for the ultimate chip texture. You can dip them in warm marinara sauce or enjoy them as-is—either way, you’ll want to make a double batch!
Serving Suggestions
Serve your Pizza Chips fresh and warm with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, or pair them with ranch or garlic aioli for added flavor. They’re ideal for party platters, lunchboxes, or as an anytime crunchy snack. For a flavor twist, sprinkle with Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes just before baking.
