Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 individual triangles along the perforated lines.
Cut each mozzarella string cheese stick into 2 equal pieces, resulting in 8 smaller sticks.
Place 3 pepperoni slices near the wide end of each crescent dough triangle.
Add one piece of mozzarella string cheese on top of the pepperoni slices.
Carefully roll up the crescent dough triangle, starting at the wide end and rolling toward the pointed tip. Ensure all sides are sealed around the filling to prevent cheese from leaking out during baking.
Arrange the rolled-up crescents on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter (about 15β20 seconds in the microwave). Stir in the garlic powder and dried Italian seasoning.
Brush the seasoned butter over the tops of the roll-ups using a pastry brush.
Sprinkle a light amount of grated Parmesan cheese over each roll-up for extra flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10β12 minutes or until the crescent dough turns golden brown and fully cooked.
Remove the pepperoni roll-ups from the oven and let them cool for 3β5 minutes. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
