Pizza Chips: The Crispy, Cheesy Snack You Never Knew You Needed

There’s something magical about the combination of crispy, golden edges and melty cheese—and these Pizza Chips deliver exactly that. Imagine all the flavors of your favorite slice, transformed into bite-sized, dippable perfection. Whether you’re hosting game night or just craving a cozy snack, these little delights are about to become your new obsession.

Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 package of egg roll wrappers – These thin, pliable sheets crisp up beautifully and give our chips that perfect crunch. (If you can’t find them, wonton wrappers work too!)
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella – The classic pizza cheese, because what’s a pizza chip without that signature stretch?
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan – For that extra savory depth. Freshly grated is always best, but the pre-grated stuff works in a pinch.
• ½ cup marinara sauce – Use your favorite jarred sauce or whip up a quick homemade version. Bonus points if it’s garlicky!
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning – A little sprinkle of oregano, basil, and thyme brings all those pizza vibes.
• ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional) – For those who like a gentle kick. Adjust to your heat preference!
• Olive oil spray or melted butter – To help our chips crisp up and turn golden in the oven.

Let’s Make Pizza Chips!

1. Preheat & Prep: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper—this keeps cleanup easy and prevents sticking.
2. Cut the Wrappers: Lay out your egg roll wrappers and slice them into quarters. You’ll get four perfect little squares from each wrapper, just the right size for snacking.
3. Cheese It Up: Sprinkle a small pinch of mozzarella and a dusting of Parmesan onto each square. Don’t overfill—just a little goes a long way, or the cheese will ooze out while baking.
4. Fold & Seal: Gently fold each square into a triangle, pressing the edges firmly to seal. A dab of water on your fingertip helps if they’re being stubborn. (Pro tip: If you prefer flat chips, skip the folding and just layer two squares together with cheese in the middle!)
5. Season & Bake: Arrange your chips on the baking sheet, lightly spray or brush with olive oil, then sprinkle with Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes. Pop them in the oven for 8-10 minutes, until golden and crisp.

At this point, your kitchen will smell like a pizzeria, and the hardest part will be waiting for them to cool just enough so you don’t burn your fingers. (Though, let’s be honest—I’ve definitely sacrificed a fingertip or two for the sake of fresh-from-the-oven cheese.)

FAQs

Can I use flour tortillas instead of corn tortillas?

Absolutely! Flour tortillas work just as well and will give your pizza chips a slightly softer, chewier texture. If you prefer extra crispiness, just bake them a little longer.

How do I store leftover pizza chips?

If you somehow have leftovers (we won’t blame you if you don’t!), store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To re-crisp them, pop them in the oven at 350°F for a few minutes.

Can I make these gluten-free?

Yes! Simply use gluten-free tortillas and double-check that all your toppings (like pepperoni or sausage) are gluten-free too. The rest of the recipe stays the same!

What other toppings can I try?

The sky’s the limit! Try BBQ chicken with red onions, pesto with cherry tomatoes, or even a dessert version with Nutella and mini marshmallows. Get creative and make them your own!

Can I air-fry these instead of baking them?

Definitely! Air-fry at 375°F for about 5-6 minutes, checking frequently to prevent burning. They’ll come out extra crispy and delicious.
