Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400F. Spray 20 standard (2-1/2-inch) nonstick muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray. Split each biscuit in half, creating 20 rounds. Place in prepared muffin cups. Press 4 mini pepperoni slices into center of each round. Sprinkle evenly with jalapeños, if desired, and basil. Spread pizza sauce evenly into rounds. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake 8 to 9 minutes or until bottom of pizzas are golden brown. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if desired. Let stand 1 to 2 minutes before removing from muffin cups. Serve warm.
