We usually have some sort of yummy pizza dish at all of the parties that I host.  I love this Pizza Bun recipe because it has been much loved by everyone who tries it. 

I think that these pizza skewers might surpass that recipe in the near future though because they are just that good!  My original pizza bun recipe is over ten years old so that’s saying a lot my friends.

5.  Starting at the blunt end of the skewer, pierce the dough and spiral-wrap the strip around the pepperoni. Allow the meat to “peak” through. Finish off by piercing the dough onto the pointy end of the skewer.
