  2. Unroll the crescent dough on a clean surface and slice it into rectangles about 4 inches wide.
  3. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each rectangle of dough, leaving a half-inch border.
  4. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, add half slices of pepperoni, and top with grated Parmesan.
  5. Roll the dough tightly from one short end into a rose shape, pinch the ends to seal and place in a greased baking dish.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
  7. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm with a side of marinara for dipping.
