This copycat stuffed cheesy bread is soft, buttery pizza dough folded around a layer of melty mozzarella, then topped with more cheese and baked until golden and bubbly. It comes together in about 30 minutes and is perfect for dipping in marinara.

Ingredients

16 oz store-bought or homemade pizza dough
3 tbsp butter
¼ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp Italian seasoning
1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese divided
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
chopped fresh parsley
marinara sauce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle at least 10 inches by 12 inches. Transfer the dough to a large piece of parchment paper.
16 oz store-bought or homemade pizza dough
Melt the butter in a small dish. Stir in the garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Brush half of the butter over the pizza dough.
3 tbsp butter, ¼ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp Italian seasoning
Spread 1 cup of mozzarella cheese over the bottom half of the dough.
1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Fold the top half down over the cheese. Pinch the edges together with your fingers to seal.
Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into 8 breadsticks.
Brush the remaining butter on the top of the dough.
Top with cheddar cheese and the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese.
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Transfer to a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the bread is golden brown.
Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese, chopped fresh parsley

Notes

Add toppings before you fold. Pepperoni or your favorite pizza toppings can go in with the mozzarella in Step 4 for a stuffed pizza bread twist.
Pinch the edges tightly so the cheese stays inside instead of leaking onto the pan.
Rolling the dough evenly matters. An uneven center needs extra bake time and can look doughy if you pull it too soon.
Brush the butter under the cheese, not just on top. It's what keeps the inside soft while the outside crisps up.
No store-bought dough on hand? Homemade pizza dough works just as well.
Ranch dressing is an easy swap for marinara, or double the garlic herb butter to serve on the side.
