Serve with sourdough bread OR celery OR tortilla chips (but we all know sourdough makes this dish orgasmic).

  • 2 generous teaspoons Oregano Leaves Dried
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper Freshly Cracked

  • 1 generous teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 23.9 ounces Pizza Sauce (I prefer Food Lion Brand, but Walmart will do)
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Grated
  • 1 handful Mini Pepperonis (Regular-sized Pepperonis will do just fine as well….but the minis are just so darn cute AND aesthetically pleasing to the eye)
  • 1 teaspoon Parsley Flakes

  • In a stand mixer (using a paddle attachment), beat the cream cheese, oregano, basil, extra sharp cheddar, 1 cup of the mozzarella, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper until thoroughly combined.
  • Spoon cream cheese mixture into a pie pan; use your fingers to delicately spread out evenly; covering the entire bottom surface.
  • Top the cream cheese layer with pizza sauce; use the bottom of a spoon to evenly spread.
  • Layer the remaining mozzarella on top of the pizza sauce. Next, sprinkle the parmesan; evenly lay the mini pepperonis in a circle fashion.
  • Sprinkle the parsley flakes and a little extra freshly cracked black pepper.
  • Bake for 30 minutes until bubbly. Switch to Broil for 1-2 minutes to perfect a crisp and lightly browned cheese topping!
