These were a cute idea, but my family really didn't care for these.

I love this recipe! We don't shape it like a snake though. I did make a few changes though. I always double the recipe. When i proof my yeast i use 1/2 cup of water and when it is time to add it to the flour and other ingredients i use 1 1/2 cups of warm milk (to replace the left out water) In the dough I add 3 cloves of fresh minced garlic, 1-2 tbsp of parsley and 1-2 tbsp Italian seasoning. In the cheese filling I add 2-3 more minced garlic cloves! (we like a lot of garlic) and about 1/2 cup of parm cheese. I like to keep the pepperoni separate from the cheese mixture. I put a thick layer of it on one side of the rolled out dough, then add the cheese mixture and close her up. They are delicious! And if there are any left overs, they taste really good cold the next day too!!!!

Good foundation recipe, but needed more seasoning. My calzone split open because I didn't have a good seal, so it ended up looking like a calzone boat :)

I used refrigerated dough, and it turned out horrible. It stayed together for the most part, but it was too bready and bland. With a little adjusting I got it to look like a slug. Anyway, it was fun for a party!

This was so cute! I baked this with my sister on Halloween for something to eat before taking our kids trick-or-treating. We used refrigerated biscuit dough to make it quicker. It was fun! Next time I am going to try putting the pizza sauce inside and baking it with the rest. We all had fun eating this - even our husbands!

This was just okay. If I were to make this again, I would add tomato sauce and make individual snakes. I did like the idea, it was very cute.

5 stars for such a FUN creative idea! 5 stars for a good base recipe to customize! This served everyone at our Halloween party, with enough for seconds, and it was just plain fun to cut into and eat. The kids really enjoyed helping to make it - I made & rolled out the dough and they layered on cheese, pepperoni, spices and olives before we sealed it and "painted" it with egg-yolk-food-coloring paint. We even put the fillings into "zones" and tried to make a gross Halloween anatomy lesson out of it with the pepperoni zone being the intestines, the black olives being the "spleens" etc. Then it was extra giggle-y and gross when I could ask them which PART of the snake they wanted to eat! Sauce for dipping makes it extra delicious.

Delicious and so easy to make. Especially since I bought prepared pizza dough. Will definitely make again.

I made this for my intended halloween dinner but towards the end, I decided to shape just like a normal calzone. I omitted egg mixture for the dough and the crust came out perfect. I also added cooked sausage into the mixture. Very good. Thanks for the recipe. It's a keeper. :)
