Make your favorite pizza dough recipe. I usually just make the one in my Better Homes and Gardens cookbook.
While your dough is mixing, make up some garlic butter. I just microwaved some butter and some of my squeeze garlic. Use a little of that butter to grease up your bundt pan and set it aside.
Roll them into small balls. I usually flatten one out to make sure I'm making them a good size... then I roll it back up and use that as my guide.
Next, you'll flatten your balls out. Place a pepperoni and some mozzarella cheese on each circle of dough. (The original recipe asks that you put a cube of mozzarella on them. The first time I made this I did that. The second time I forgot to buy a block of mozzarella but I did have string cheese so I just cut that into chunks. This time I had a ton of shredded cheese so I used that. They all worked well.)
Now you are going to roll your dough back into a ball and make sure it's sealed so that the cheese doesn't seep out. Then dip it into some garlic butter. I usually roll a bunch of balls and stick them in all at once. Otherwise your buttery hands won't be able to seal the dough.
After the pizza balls are all buttered up you'll stick them into your bundt pan. If I have any leftover butter I pour it on top. If you have time you can let it sit and rest for 30 minutes... or you can just put it into the oven. You'll cook it at 400 degrees for about 30-35 minutes.
Loosen the sides and turn onto a plate.
Warm up some pizza sauce for dipping. (I usually use a can of tomato sauce and add spices to it.)
