Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup ricotta
2 cups shredded mozzarella, plus for decorating
1 1/4 cups freshly grated Parmesan
1/2 cup diced pepperoni, plus 12 large slices and 4 slices for garnish
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
6 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
12 slices rustic white bread
3/4 cup jarred marinara sauce, plus more for dipping, optional
36 black olive slices
18 green olive slices

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, using a rubber spatula, mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, the diced pepperoni and the basil until well combined.
  • Butter one side of each slice of bread. Working buttered side down, spread each slice with 1 tablespoon of the marinara. Divide the cheese mixture among 6 slices of the bread, and sandwich with the remaining slices. For each sandwich, sprinkle the top piece of bread with 1 tablespoon of the remaining Parmesan. Flip, and sprinkle the other side with an additional tablespoon of Parmesan.
  • To make all of these sandwiches at once, heat 2 baking pans in the oven for 10 minutes. Spray the bottom of one of the pans with cooking spray, and place the buttered and Parmesan-ed sandwiches in the pan. Spray the underside of the second pan, and place it on top of the sandwiches. Bake until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted, 10 minutes.
  • Cut each sandwich into 3 pieces. Using a few shreds of mozzarella cheese as glue, make a face using the black olive slices as eyes, the green olive slices as a nose, and the pepperoni slices as a mouth. Melt for 4 minutes in the oven to adhere.
  • Serve with marinara for dipping if desired.
