OKAY I MAKE THIS ALL THE TIME AND LET ME TELL YOU THAT THEY ARE THE SHIT. I also noticed that there’s no recipe here, so I’ll give you mine.
Ingredients:
Pillsbury Buttermilk Biscuits (it is very important that you get the Buttermilk biscuits and not the Grands, as the Grands are flaky and you do not want that for this recipe) – 3 (three) containers (That’s 30 [thirty] biscuits all together)
Package of pepperoni (you need at least 60 (sixty) pieces of pepperoni. Another side note, I use turkey pepperoni because I’m kosher, and it tastes just as good)
Package of colby jack string cheese
Italian seasoning
Grated parmesan
Garlic powder
1 (one) egg
About 1 (one) tbsp of butter (preferably off a stick of butter)
Jar of pizza or marinara sauce
Tools:
Small knife (butter knife, doesn’t matter)
Large cookie sheet
3 (three) small mixing bowls/ramekins (2 [two] must be microwave safe)
A cooking brush (like one you would use for grilling)
A whisk or fork
Instructions:
Preheat your over to 475 (Four hundred seventy five) degrees Fahrenheit.
Take a large cookie sheet and use a bit of your stick of butter to grease it up. No need to heat the butter up, just spread it around.
Take 10 (ten) of the cheese sticks, unwrap them, and then cut each into thirds. Put aside in a neat and easy to reach pile.
Take your package of pepperoni and take out 60 (sixty) pieces (no need to count them out, just grab a huge handful, and grab more if needed). Put them next to the cheese.
Open a can of biscuits and take one at a time.
Now, you load up your biscuit. Slightly (very slightly) flatten the biscuit in your hand. Grab two pieces of pepperoni and one cheese piece. Put one pepperoni on the biscuit, then the cheese, then the only piece of pepperoni – effectively sandwiching the cheese.
Take the edges of the biscuit and fold it around the pepperoni and cheese. It should encase them, and then you pinch together the seams, essentially making it into a ball. I find it helps to roll it in your hands after you sealed all the edges. Be sure to seal any breaks or tears in the dough.
Place onto cookie sheet seam side down.
Do this for all the biscuits.
The cookie sheet should have 6 (six) rows of 5 (five) biscuits on it.
Now you need to make the seasoning to put on top of the biscuits. To do this, grab 2 (two) mixing bowls, the egg, the remainder of the butter, the italian seasoning, the parmesan, the garlic powder, and the brush.
In the microwave safe bowl, break up the remainder of the butter in the small pieces and microwave it until the butter is completely melted.
While waiting for the butter to melt, in the other bowl, combine the parmesan, the italian seasoning, and the garlic powder. No set measurements, just add as much as you think will be needed to cover the biscuits. I find that having a ratio of 2 (two) parmesan to 1 (one) italian seasoning to 1 (one) garlic seasoning tastes best, but it’s all up to you. Whisk this mixture with a whisk or a fork.
Take the butter out of the microwave (careful, it’s hot), wait for it to cool a bit, and then crack an egg in the same bowl and whisk it until the butter and egg are combined.
Take the brush and brush the egg/butter mixture over all the biscuits. Give them a heavy coating, but you don’t need to use all of the mixture.
Now that the biscuits are coated, sprinkle some heavy helpings of the seasoning over the biscuits.
Put them into the oven for 15 -17 (fifteen to seventeen) minutes, or until you see a nice browning on the top of the pizza balls. A few may burst and cheese will come out, but it’s fine.
After they’re done, take them out and allow them to cool on a counter or whatever you have.
While waiting for them to cool, grab another bowl and pour your pizza sauce or marinara in. Microwave it until hot.
Grab some pizza balls and serve with the sauce!
Trust me man, this stuff is amazing. The recipe can be modified as much as you want, but this is what I do.
UNFFFF
these are a regular at my house now, sooooo gooood. we also made them with barbeque chicken which were alright. but the bbq sauce stayed molten for a ery long time
Some people draw nice, clean art in their sketchbooks. Some people work best when they’re churning out page after page of crap until one nice drawing emerges. One style may be more photogenic but neither is better than the other. The only thing holding you back is the idea that what you put in a sketchbook SHOULD look a certain way, when in reality sketchbooks exist so you can scribble, mess around with new things, and make art that’s less than your best! If you don’t want to “ruin” a nice sketchbook than just grab a stack of printer paper. Thank u for reading. Do your best kids. Go make some ugly sketchbooks
I once had an animation teacher tell me never to put anything finished in a sketchbook because it defeated the purpose of having the book in the first place. Back in College i didnt really believe him but honestly now I can see where he came from. A Sketchbook is for learning how you progress and form ideas into images, and putting finished work into your book can sort of break up that flow of fragmented progression, but its not a set rule obviously!
My sketchbooks are for real the ugliest thing because I do all my moderately nice art on the computer these days now that I basically always have a tablet PC on hand and my sketchbook is full of nothing but 100% thinking out loud garbage that looks like it came out of a hairbrush. Like, room schematics, floorplans, environment thumbnails that mean nothing to anyone but me, but they do their job and help me sort out all my business. I thought I lost one once at a restaurant for a few days until it resurfaced and was just like OH NO ALL MY ENVIRONMENTS ARE GONE like yeah take pride in your sketchbook full of meaningless wiggles because it means you’re working the kinks out.
just a comparison between Suigimori’s official character art from Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to the originals. The redesigns are pretty great in my opinion
This could sincerely be used in a cartooning class with the intent of teaching the importance of action lines and expressive characters.
if you tell me that even professional artists can’t improve and still want to improve and work their hardest to improve then i’m calling bs
on the topic of humans being the intergalactic “hold my beer” species: imagine an alien stepping onto a human starship and seeing a space roomba™ with a knife duct taped onto it, just wandering around the ship
it doesn’t have any special intelligence. it’s just a normal space roomba. there are other space roombas on the ship and they don’t have knives. it’s just this one. knife space roomba has full clearance to every room in the ship. occasionally crew members will be talking and then suddenly swear and clutch their ankle. knife space roomba putters off, leaving them to their mild stab wounds.
“what is the point?” asks the alien as another crew member casually steps over the knife-wielding robot. “is it to test your speed and agility?”
“no it doesn’t really go that fast,” replies the captain.
“does it teach you to stay ever-vigilant?”
“I mean I guess so but that’s more of a side effect.”
“does it weed out the weak? does it protect you from invaders? do repeated stabbings let your species heal more quickly in the future?”
“it doesn’t stab very hard, it gets us more than it gets our enemies, and no, but that sounds cool — someone write that down.”
“but then what is its purpose?”
“I don’t know,” the captain says, leaning down to give the space roomba an affectionate pat. “it just seemed cool”
this is the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard but I thought about it for five seconds and realized that if I were, say, a random communications officer onboard this ship and someone taped a knife to a roomba it would take maybe three weeks before even I was inordinately fond of Stabby. I would be proud of Stabby when I met up with my other spacefleet friends for space coffee, I would tell them about the time Stabby got the second mate in the ankle five seconds before the fleet admiral beamed on board and she swore in seven different languages in front of high command.
also by the fourth day Stabby would be in the ship’s log, he’d have little painted-on insignia, people would salute him as he went by, and someone would hook up a twitter account to tweet maniacal laughter and/or a truly terrible knock-knock joke every time he managed to nick someone.
Omg so the ting I typed up might actually happen this is gold
