1-Getting ready: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for even baking and easy cleanup.

2-Prepare optional add-ins and seasoning: First, if you’re using optional add-ins, cook the sausage, peppers, and onions as needed. Slice ½ cup of pepperoni into small pieces and set them aside, while cutting the extra slices into fun shapes for decoration. In a small bowl, mix together ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning to create a flavorful blend.

3-Mix cheese and fillings: Next, in a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese, ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, the optional ¼ cup sautéed peppers and onions, the optional ½ cup cooked Italian sausage, the ½ cup sliced pepperoni, and the seasoning mixture until everything is well blended. Unroll the crescent rolls and separate them into triangles, placing four on the baking sheet and setting the rest aside.

4-Assembling and Baking Steps: Beat 1 egg with 1 tablespoon water to make an egg wash, then brush it on the edges of the triangles on the sheet. Spoon 1½ to 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture onto the center of each triangle, making sure to avoid the edges. Top with the reserved triangles, press the edges to seal, and shape the dough into a witch’s hat by folding up the bottom for the brim and pointing the top.

5-Bake and finish: Brush the tops with the egg wash, add the fun-shaped pepperoni pieces on the brims, and sprinkle with additional seasoning. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Once done, optionally sprinkle with extra grated Parmesan cheese and serve warm with marinara sauce.
