They're not sweet, but my family will not let me get by without making my pepperoni rolls. I started making them back in the 70s when my oldest son was in college. I was looking for a way to send fresh baked pizza flavored breads to him and the dorm mates loved them, so when my twins were in college a few years later, their friends said I should sell them.
When my oldest grandson was in college, the UPS boys and girls insisted that I bring them some instead of teasing them with my packages smelling so good....on and on it has gone, so that now a young mother whose son plays hockey makes them and sells them.
They are good, but not healthy and for my vegetarian grandaughter I leave the pepperoni out and for my non-pork eating sister, I use turkey pepperoni. I have a batch made for this year's party and waiting in the freezer.
