For the Pizza Balls

• Rimmed Sheet Pan- I’m using a 15″x10″ size, anything similar will work. You could double this and put it on a full sheet pan with more dip quadrants.
• 2 pounds store-bought pizza dough
• Cooking spray or olive oil, for greasing pan

Store-Bought Dips (about 12 ounces each)

Here’s what I used, but grab your favorite from the store or make your own!

• Spinach Artichoke Dip
• Buffalo Chicken Dip
• Smokehouse Burnt Ends Dip
• Bacon Ranch Cheddar Dip

Plus toppings for each dip, see below for suggestions

Garlic Parsley Butter

• ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
• 3 cloves garlic, finely minced or grated
• 1½ tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
• ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

How To Make It

Step 1: Make the Garlic Parsley Butter

In a small bowl, stir together melted butter, garlic, parsley, salt, and garlic powder. Let it sit for 5 minutes so the garlic can infuse the butter.

Step 2: Prep the Dough

Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 15 x 10 rimmed sheet pan.

Cut pizza dough into 1½-inch pieces and roll into smooth balls.

Arrange dough balls:

• Around the outer perimeter of the pan
• In a cross down the center, dividing the pan into four equal sections

Press the dough balls so they’re touching, creating walls for the dips.

Step 3: Assemble the Tray

Spoon each store-bought dip into its own section of the pan.

Brush the pizza dough balls generously with garlic parsley butter.

Step 4: Bake

Bake at 375°F for 22–25 minutes, until:

• Pizza dough balls are deep golden brown
• Dips are hot, bubbly, and lightly browned on top

Brush the dough balls with remaining garlic butter immediately after baking.

Topping Ideas for Each Dip (After Baking)

Spinach Artichoke Dip

• Freshly grated Parmesan
• Crushed red pepper flakes
• Drizzle of garlic olive oil
• Chopped parsley or basil

Buffalo Chicken Dip

• Crumbled blue cheese or extra shredded mozzarella
• Drizzle of buffalo sauce or ranch
• Thinly sliced green onions

Smokehouse Burnt Ends Dip

• Crispy fried onions
• Diced red onions
• Extra chopped burnt ends or bacon bits
• Drizzle of BBQ sauce
• Smoked paprika or cracked black pepper

Bacon Ranch Cheddar Dip

• Extra shredded cheddar or Colby-Jack
• Crispy bacon crumbles
• Fresh chives or green onions
• Light sprinkle of ranch seasoning

Party Planning and Servings Tip 🏈

• 8–10 people: Plenty with leftovers
• 10–12 people: Perfect amount
• 12–14 people: Works if you have other apps
• Big crowd (15+): Make two trays or pair with another finger food

Serving Tips

• Serve warm with marinara or pizza sauce on the side for dipping
• Sprinkle pizza balls with Parmesan and parsley right before serving
• Holds well on warm for 30 minutes, also delicious room temperature, perfect for game day grazing
• Make Ahead: You can assemble the entire tray up to 8 hours ahead, cover tightly, and refrigerate. When ready to bake, let the pan sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes, then bake as directed.

Storage

If you’re lucky enough to have leftovers, let everything cool completely. Transfer pizza dough balls and dips to an airtight container or cover the sheet pan tightly with foil or plastic wrap.

• Refrigerator: Store for up to 3 days
• For best texture, keep dough balls and dips together rather than separating

Reheating

Oven (Best Method)

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Place leftovers on a baking sheet and cover loosely with foil
• Heat for 10–15 minutes, until warmed through
• Remove foil for the last few minutes if you want the dough to re-crisp

Air Fryer (Great for Small Portions)

• Heat at 325°F for 5–7 minutes
• Check frequently to avoid over-browning the dough

Microwave (Quick Option)

• Microwave in short 30-second bursts
• Dough will be softer, but dips will still be delicious
