Directions

Preheat oven broiler.
Place French bread loaf or baguette on a flat surface. Carefully carve out the top center of the bread to create a “boat.” Spread desired portion of pizza sauce within the hollowed middle of the bread. Layer some mini pepperoni over the sauce. Cover with Cooper® cheese. Add more pepperoni. Repeat for the second loaf.
Broil for 5-8 minutes, checking frequently to avoid burning. Remove from oven when the cheese is nice and melty and the pepperoni and bread begin to brown.
Serve with any remaining pizza sauce for dunking.
