1

Gather Your Ingredients

To make your heart-shaped pizza pockets, you will need the following: pizza dough (store-bought or homemade), pizza sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, and your favorite pizza toppings (e.g., pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers).

2

Prep the Dough

Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface. Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out pairs of hearts. Make sure you have an even number of hearts, as you'll be sandwiching them together to create the pockets.

3

Add the Fillings

On one heart-shaped dough, spread a spoonful of pizza sauce, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle some shredded mozzarella cheese and your desired toppings on top. Leave out any ingredients that could become soggy, like fresh tomatoes or lettuce.

4

Seal and Bake

Place another heart-shaped dough on top of the filling-covered one. Gently press the edges together to seal the pocket. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch. Repeat the process for the remaining hearts. Transfer the pizza pockets to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-18 minutes or until golden brown.

Enjoy Your Heart-shaped Delights

Once the pizza pockets are done baking, carefully remove them from the oven. Allow them to cool for a few minutes before indulging in their warm and cheesy goodness. Serve with some extra pizza sauce for dipping, if desired.
