  2. On one half of each square, spoon 1-2 tablespoons of marinara sauce, then layer it with mozzarella cheese and desired toppings.
  3. Fold the dough over to create a pocket, crimping the edges with a fork to seal it securely.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the filled pockets for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  5. Once cooked, let the pockets cool for a few minutes before serving with dipping sauces.
