Ingredients

• 1 cup warm water , 100 degrees F/40 degrees C
• 0.5 teaspoons white sugar
• 1 , .25 ounce
• 5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups white sugar
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 eggs , beaten
• 0.5 cups butter , melted
• 1 , 8 ounce

Instructions

1. 1 Stir together 1 cup warm water and 1/2 teaspoon sugar in a small bowl until sugar dissolves. Sprinkle yeast over water; let stand for 5 minutes.
2. 2 Mix flour, 3/4 cup sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in yeast mixture, beaten eggs, and melted butter until dough comes together. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
3. 3 Place dough into a greased bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a light cloth; let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.
4. 4 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
5. 5 Punch down dough; divide into 20 equal pieces about the size of a golf ball. Using your hands, flatten each piece into a small rectangle, about 4 inches square.
6. 6 Place 3 overlapping slices of pepperoni down the center of each dough square. Place another row of 3 pepperoni slices next to the first. Roll dough around pepperoni, pinch the edges closed, and place rolls on the prepared cookie sheet.
7. 7 Bake rolls in the preheated oven until bottoms are lightly browned and tops are barely golden, 14 to 16 minutes.
