Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 tubes (13.8 ounces each) pizza dough
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 4 lices thick-cut bacon, cooked, crumbled
  • 1 small red onion, finely diced
  • 1 medium jalapeño pepper, seeded, diced
  • 2 teaspoons Chives, minced
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 2 cups (226 g) white cheddar cheese, shredded, divided

Topping

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, unroll both tubes of pizza dough and place one on top of the other, aligning them so they match up. Gently press them together so they stick.*
  3. Cut the layered dough into 4 equal sections. Roll out each section to about an 8x10-inch rectangle. Set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, bacon, red onion, jalapeño, chives, and minced garlic.
  5. Take one section of dough and spread ⅓ of the cream cheese mixture evenly over it. Place a second section of dough on top of the cream cheese layer, then spread another ⅓ of the cream cheese mixture on top. Put a third piece of dough on top, and spread the rest of the cream cheese mixture over it. Finally, place the fourth and final piece of dough on top. Gently press down on the dough to seal all the layers together.
  6. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough stack into 8 equal strips, about 1 inch each. Then cut each strip in half to create 16 shorter strips, each about 5 inches long.
  7. Gently twist and stretch a strip of dough (3-5 twists), then bring the ends together to form a circle. Pinch the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining strips to make 16 twists.
  8. Place the twists onto the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle the tops of the twists evenly with the cheese (about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese on top of each). Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. While the twists are baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic and salt. Stir and cook for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
  10. Once the twists are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
  11. Brush the warm garlic butter mixture over the twists and serve immediately.

Notes

  • *Stacking the pizza dough helps it roll out evenly, makes it easier to handle, and gives the twists a stronger shape when baking.
