Ingredients You’ll Need

1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (or puff pastry sheets)
½ cup pizza sauce (or marinara sauce)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
12–16 slices pepperoni (or your favorite pizza toppings)
1 tbsp melted butter (optional, for brushing)
½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
½ tsp dried Italian herbs (optional)

Step-by-Step: How to Make Witch Hat Crescent Rolls

1. Preheat the Oven

Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Shape the Hats

Unroll your crescent dough and cut it into long triangles. Roll each triangle into a little cone shape. Don’t worry if they’re not perfect—witch hats are supposed to be a bit crooked! Curl the tip just slightly for that whimsical pointy look.

3. Add the Magic Filling

Carefully spoon a little pizza sauce inside each cone. Add shredded mozzarella and a slice of pepperoni. Pinch the edges to close—leave a little cheese or pepperoni peeking out, like a spooky surprise.

4. Bake Until Golden

Arrange your hats on the baking sheet. If you’re feeling fancy, brush them with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder and Italian herbs. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.

5. Serve and Enjoy

Let them cool slightly before serving (trust me, molten cheese is no joke). Serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.

Aneta’s Kitchen Tip

Don’t stress if your Witch Hat Crescent Rolls don’t look Pinterest-perfect. I once made a batch where half looked more like wizard hats and the rest resembled ice cream cones. The kids still devoured them, giggling the whole time. Sometimes the “imperfections” make them even more magical!

FAQs About Witch Hat Crescent Rolls

Can I use puff pastry instead of crescent dough?

Absolutely! Puff pastry will give them a flakier, bakery-style vibe.

Can I make them vegetarian?

Yes! Skip the pepperoni and fill them with mushrooms, olives, or even spinach and cheese.

How do I store leftovers?

Place cooled rolls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for the best texture (the microwave works too, but they’ll be softer).

Can I make them ahead for a party?

Yes—assemble the hats earlier in the day, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate. Pop them in the oven right before serving.
