There is something about the size of a slider that just seems to work for all ages. I prefer using the frozen rolls that need time to rise before baking them for my sliders however most supermarkets carry some form of pre-made slider rolls that work perfectly. Be sure to plan ahead if your preference requires rise time then grab your favorite pizza toppings and bake up a warm pan of Pepperoni Pizza Sliders.
