Place the bottom half of the rolls in the prepared pan. Brush 2½ tablespoons of the prepared butter mixture onto the cut sides of both the top and bottom halves of the rolls. (So you'll use a total of 5 tbsp butter here).LAYER IN FOLLOWING ORDER: 6 slices of cheese, 12 pepperonis, pizza sauce, 12 more pepperonis, 6 remaining slices of cheese.

Video Recipe NotesNote 1: Rolls: Keep the rolls intact and slice in half horizontally: Note 2: Pepperoni: We prefer deli-sliced pepperoni. It's larger, so you'll only need about 24 pieces. If using smaller, packaged pepperonis, you'll need about 48. Feel free to adjust the quantity to your preference.
