Pizza Chips with Mozzarella: Crispy

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Note: Silicone mats help the pepperoni release even easier.
2. Arrange the pepperoni slices in a single layer on the baking sheet.
3. Leave approximately 1/4 inch of space between each slice until they are evenly spread to ensure air circulation.
4. Place a small pinch (roughly 1/2 teaspoon) of shredded mozzarella cheese in the center of each pepperoni slice.
5. Slide the tray onto the center rack of the oven.
6. Bake for 8–10 minutes until the pepperoni edges are dark mahogany and the cheese is bubbling with small golden brown spots.
7. Remove the chips from the oven immediately to prevent over browning.
8. Let them sit for 2 minutes until they firm up and achieve a shatter crisp texture.
