Ingredients

For the Filling:

  • 8 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup cream cheese, softened

  • ¼ cup sour cream

  • 2 tbsp ranch seasoning (store-bought or homemade)

  • ¼ tsp garlic powder (optional, for extra flavor)

For the Dough:

  • 1 lb pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)

  • ¼ cup melted butter

  • 1 tbsp ranch seasoning (for brushing)

Optional Garnish:

  • Chopped fresh parsley

  • Extra ranch dressing (for dipping)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat & Prep

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2: Make the Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine mozzarella, cheddar, cream cheese, sour cream, ranch seasoning, garlic powder, and crumbled bacon. Mix until smooth and well blended.

Step 3: Roll Out the Dough

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12x16-inch rectangle. Spread the bacon ranch filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 4: Roll & Slice

Tightly roll the dough into a log, starting from one of the long sides. Pinch the seam to seal. Using a sharp knife or dental floss, cut the log into 12–15 slices and place them cut-side up on the baking sheet.

Step 5: Bake

Brush the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with ranch seasoning. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.

Step 6: Garnish & Serve

Let the rolls cool for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm with ranch dressing for dipping.
