This pizza rolls kitchen hack will change your late-night game

When you're gunning for a plate of pizza rolls, you usually nuke a bunch of Totino's and call it a day. But there is a certain amount of pride -- and exponentially more deliciousness and bragging -- that comes with making your own rolls. Now you can feel that pride with minimal effort through this ingenious Imgur recipe.

Crescent roll, string cheese, and pepperoni pizza rolls

Here's what you'll need: at least two cans of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls, a couple packs of string cheese (you can never have too much), and one pack of pepperoni. (Kindly ignore the original recipe's use of turkey pepperoni.)

After you've determined how many rolls you're making, stretch out that number of Crescents. Top each with five pepperonis and half a string cheese stick. Pack your mini slices into neat rolls, and then bake them according to the Pillsbury instructions. In no time at all, you'll open your oven to some jumbo pizza poppers.

If the many Imgur comments are to be believed, this is pretty close to the recipe Pizza Hut uses for their pizza rollers. Good to know, but if pizza chain recipes are getting out, we'd appreciate the one for Domino's Chocolate Lava Crunch Cakes.
