  • Calories: ~50–60 per chip

📝 Ingredients

Cheese & Seasoning Base:

  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese (low-moisture works best)

  • ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • ¼ tsp garlic powder

  • ¼ tsp onion powder

  • Pinch of salt (optional, depending on cheese saltiness)

Toppings:

  • 25–30 mini pepperoni slices (or chopped regular pepperoni)

  • Optional: crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick

  • Optional: fresh or dried basil for garnish

🍽️ Step-by-Step Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat & Prep Baking Sheet

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick silicone mat.

2️⃣ Mix Cheese & Seasonings

In a medium bowl, combine shredded mozzarella, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well.

3️⃣ Form the Chips

Spoon small mounds of cheese mixture (about 1–2 tablespoons each) onto the baking sheet, leaving 1–2 inches between each mound.
Gently press each mound to flatten into a thin circle—the thinner, the crispier.

4️⃣ Add Pepperoni

Place 1 mini pepperoni slice (or 2–3 small pieces) on top of each flattened cheese mound. Press lightly so it adheres.

5️⃣ Bake to Crispy Perfection

Bake for 8–12 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly, slightly browned at the edges, and crispy.
Keep an eye on them—they can go from golden to burnt quickly.

6️⃣ Cool & Serve

Remove from oven and let chips cool 2–3 minutes on the baking sheet—they crisp further as they cool.
Transfer to a serving plate and enjoy immediately.
