# Steps:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
02 -
Unwrap the mozzarella string cheese sticks and cut each into three equal pieces.
03 -
Combine dried oregano, garlic powder, and grated parmesan cheese in a small bowl.
04 -
Unroll the refrigerated pizza dough onto a work surface and cut into 24 even pieces.
05 -
Place one piece of string cheese in the center of each dough segment. Tightly roll the dough around the cheese, pinching edges to seal, and arrange seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
06 -
Brush each dough roll with melted butter. Sprinkle the parmesan and herb mix evenly over the tops and press one slice of pepperoni onto each roll.
07 -
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown.
08 -
Serve immediately with warm pizza sauce, if desired.

For best results, ensure the dough is tightly pinched to prevent cheese from leaking during baking.
