I found this recipe on a site called For the Love of Cooking (see link below). These would be good as a snack, but also could be a meal, as we had them tonight. I love the idea of dinner in the form of a "cupcake" because it's great for portion control. You can have three of these "cupcakes" for only 8 WW Points Plus points. Not too bad! They were pretty tasty, too! Everyone loved them. I served these with a green salad and some fruit. Makes 10 cupcakes.

You'll Need:- cooking spray
- 1 tube refrigerator biscuits (I used Pillsbury...if I wasn't married, I don't know how I'd ever open one of those. Is anyone else TERRIFIED of the pop?!?)
- pizza sauce
- mozzarella cheese, diced or shredded
- turkey pepperoni slices
- parmesan cheese, shredded
- dried basil (I used Italian seasoning)
Preparation:- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Coat a muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Press the dough of a biscuit into the bottom and sides of the muffin tin. Repeat with the remaining dough. (The original recipe says you can cut each biscuit in half for "thin crust"...I couldn't get that to work right. One full biscuit per muffin tin wasn't too doughy. It was just right.)
- Spoon sauce into each cup. Place some mozzarella cheese into the cups, followed by a few slices of pepperoni.
- Finally, add a bit more mozzarella, if desired, then sprinkle the tops with parmesan cheese and dried basil (or oregano, or Italian seasoning...whatever you're using).
- Place into the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
