Divide the pizza dough into about 14 roughly equal sized pieces. Take one of the dough pieces, flatten it, and put shredded cheese and some pepperoni in the middle. Pull the edges of the dough around the fillings and pinch closed. Repeat with the remaining dough pieces. Make sure dough balls are pinched completely shut and try to smooth ball .

Heat oil on the stove to medium-high. Drop a few balls in at a time. Cook until brown, then flip balls over so they brown evenly on both sides, cooking a few minutes on each side. You may want to test one first to determine how long it needs to cook for on each side. Remove and place on a plate lined with paper towel to soak up some of the excess oil. Repeat until all balls are cooked. Roll balls in grated parmesan cheese. Serve immediately with a side of marinara sauce.
