Ingredients

1 can refrigerated pizza dough or crescent roll sheet ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheddar for sharper flavor) ¼ cup finely chopped dill pickles (well-drained) 1 tablespoon melted butter ½ teaspoon garlic powder ½ teaspoon dried dill (optional but enhances flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll: Roll out the pizza dough or crescent sheet on a lightly floured surface.
  3. Butter: Brush the dough lightly with melted butter.
  4. Top: Sprinkle garlic powder, shredded cheese, and chopped pickles evenly over the top.
  5. Fold: Fold the dough in half lengthwise to cover filling and press gently to seal.
  6. Cut: Slice the dough into 1-inch wide strips using a pizza cutter.
  7. Twist: Twist each strip a few times and lay on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Bake: Bake 12–15 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
  9. Serve: Brush with melted butter, sprinkle dried dill, and serve with ranch or cheese sauce.

Notes

Brush extra butter over baked twists before serving for a glossy finish. For a little spice, add crushed red pepper flakes or Cajun seasoning. Best served warm with dipping sauces like ranch, cheese, or garlic butter.
