This is a great appetizer for the holidays. Pizza dough stuffed with sausage, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese, then baked.
For the dough: In a large mixing bowl (or in the bowl of a stand mixer), add the water and sprinkle the yeast over the water. Let the yeast proof about 5 minutes until nice and foamy. Add in the sugar, honey and oil. Then mix in 1 cup flour and the salt. Continue mixing in all the remaining flour until you get a nice, soft dough. Knead until dough is soft and smooth, about 10 minutes by hand or 5 minutes with a stand mixer.
Shape the dough into a ball and place in a lightly greased bowl and cover tightly (with a lid or plastic wrap). Keep in a warm place and let rise until doubled in size. About 45 minutes. Punch down dough. Separate dough into 2 halves.
For The filling: Heat skillet on medium high heat. Brown sausage with garlic until cooked throughout. In a large bowl add cheeses, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, eggs (reserve a bit of the egg for egg wash) and sausage. Mix well.
Preheat oven 350 degrees (F).
Roll out pizza dough, adding flour as needed. Add the filling and spread it over the dough. Then roll the dough carefully into a long log.
Place rolls on a baking sheet, brush with egg wash, sprinkle with poppy seeds and bake until golden brown.
The size of the rolls will vary so for the last 10 minutes or so keep an eye on them.
Cool before slicing.

This looks so good and when I show it to my 10 year old he is going to be full of joy. The other day I was making some cinnamon bread and he suggested sausage and cheese instead of cinnamon and sugar. I thought it was a great idea, but I have yet to try it. Now I have your recipe!
