Preparation
- Divide pizza dough into 12-14 equal sized balls. With floured hands, roll the dough balls into logs and tie into individual knots, tucking the excess underneath.
- Coat a 10 inch (25 cm) oven-safe skillet with olive oil.
- Place the knots in a ring around the skillet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes, allowing the dough to reach room temperature.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, mozzarella, parmesan, ricotta, fresh basil, 3 cloves of garlic (chopped), and red pepper flakes.
- Melt the butter and add the fresh parsley and remaining garlic. Stir well.
- Uncover the knots and scoop the dip into the center of the skillet. Brush the knots with the butter/garlic mixture (reserving some for after baking), and top the dip with an additional sprinkle of cheese (optional).
- Bake in a preheated oven to 400˚F (200˚C) for 20 minutes. Broil on high for two additional minutes or until knots and cheese are lightly browned, watching closely so as not to burn it.
- Remove from oven and brush lightly with additional garlic butter.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
- Enjoy!

This was so delicious, I made this for a shared lunch at work. Everyone loved it and begged for me to bring again. The pizza dough I used was another recipe from Tasty the 2 ingredient dough which was also great! 😍

This is so amazing and easy to make ! As long as you follow the recipe step by step you’ll be in good shape ! Made this multiple times and everyone loves it ! You can also use olive oil to replace melted butter if you want to make it lighter 😊

Sooooo yummy. I used Pilsbury Pizza Dough because I didnt have time to make Pizza Douch and was still okay. I recommend having Tostitos/corn chips when making this because I would have rathered a crunch in it personally

Excellent recipe and easy to make. To reduce the sharpness of the garlic, I would suggest using roasted garlic, or slowly sautéing the garlic in butter and water until it is just straw colored before adding it to the recipe.
