• Unroll pizza dough; press into a 15x9 rectangle. Cut into 24 square pieces. Divide mac and cheese mixture evenly and place in the center of each piece. Pull edges of each piece of dough up and around mac and cheese mixture to enclose completely; pinching seams to seal. Place seam-side down in pie plate.

BACON CHEESEBURGER DIP BOMBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large saute pan over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Drain on a towel-lined plate. Drain all grease from pan except 1 tablespoon.
• Return pan to medium heat and cook onions and garlic until softened, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in the ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in the worcestershire sauce, diced tomatoes, cream cheese, relish, scallions, crisp bacon, salt and pepper. Cook until cream cheese is melted, then remove from heat and let cool.
• Unroll the pizza dough and cut into 18 squares. Working with one at a time, place about 2 teaspoons shredded cheddar cheese into the center of the dough, then top with about a tablespoon of the beef mixture. Top with a teaspoon of cheddar cheese. Pull the corners of the dough up to meet in the middle and pinch to close. Place the dough, seam side down, about 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake for 25 minutes until golden. Serve on a bed of shredded lettuce with relish, mustard and ketchup on the side.

BACON AND CHEESE FAT BOMBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lay bacon strips in a single layer on the sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and crisp, about 15 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
• Mix cream cheese, butter, and Cheddar cheese together in a bowl. Add lime zest, a squeeze of lime juice, and garlic. Fold serrano pepper into mixture; refrigerate until chilled and stiff, about 10 minutes.
• Divide chilled cream cheese mixture into 6 equal parts and roll into balls to make the fat bombs.
• Chop bacon and place in a bowl with cilantro. Roll 1 fat bomb at a time in the bowl to coat. Serve cold.

BACON-CHEESE PIZZA BOMBS

Steps:

• Place a pizza stone on the center rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place it on top of the pizza stone.
• In a small skillet or pot, warm the olive oil over medium heat until very warm to the touch. Add the rosemary, thyme, red pepper flakes and garlic. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Stir in the parsley and season to taste with salt.
• In a medium skillet over medium-low heat, cook the bacon until crispy, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate, then crumble.
• Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Flatten and shape each piece of dough into a 3 1/2-inch round.
• Spread 1/4 teaspoon tomato paste in the center of a round, leaving a small border around the edge. Tear a basil leaf into pieces and add to the center, along with about 1 teaspoon of bacon. Top with 3/4-ounce (about 1 heaping tablespoon) mozzarella. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and some red pepper flakes. Very lightly brush the circumference of the dough with water. Bring the edges of the round towards the center, lightly pleating to form a tight enclosure, and pinch to seal. Using a metal skewer dipped in flour, make a hole in the center of the dough to create a steam vent. Place on a sheet of parchment and repeat with the remaining dough and fillings. Remove the hot baking sheet from the oven, then transfer all the dough balls to the hot baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Brush them liberally with the herb oil.
• Transfer the baking sheet to the pizza stone and bake, 5 minutes. Rotate the pan and bake until golden brown, about 5 minutes more. Brush with herb oil and serve immediately with marina sauce and the remaining herb oil for dipping.
