Unroll the pizza crust and stretch into an 8x11" square. Taking a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, make even slits on both sides of the dough, approximately 2" long.

In the middle of the crust, spoon a few tablespoons of pizza sauce.

Add a few dollops of ricotta cheese, spreading as evenly as you can, then sprinkle a generous helping of mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese.

Lastly, add a few slices of pepperoni on top of the cheese.

Starting with one of the pizza crust, create a braid by laying one side of the small cuts of dough on top of each folder, overlapping with the other side, like a "braid". Get Recipe

Continue the braid until the entire dough is braided together, then spread the melted butter on top of the braid, topping with dried parsley and basil. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Get Recipe
