Deep Dish Pizza Cupcakes

By srumbel

Pizza is my all-time favorite food. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The other day I was in the mood for deep dish pizza. I wanted something quick, so a traditional deep dish pizza was out of the question. I had a can of crescent rolls in the fridge, so I made these deep dish pizza cupcakes. They were SO good. They took about 20 minutes from start to finish. We had them for lunch, but they would be great for a quick dinner. These can be customized for every family members personal preference. You might want to double the recipe, these don't last long!
