Start by cutting pepperoni slices into little squares, then toss the pepperoni in a bowl with shredded mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce. Break up the cheese shreds if they're extra long; for both the cheese and the pepperoni, smaller bits are better. You can also use an Italian cheese blend or add some Parmesan cheese if you like, and you can add any extra seasoning to taste.
Lay the wonton wrappers out on a flat surface; a baking sheet works well. Place a small amount of the filing in the center of each wrapper, no more than two teaspoons. Fold the wrapper in half to make a rectangle (or fold corner to corner to make a triangle) and wet the edges. Press the edges to seal them completely. Heat about an inch of oil to 375 F in a large skillet. Place the rolls in a single layer and fry them until each is golden brown, a total time of about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Serve the rolls while still hot with pizza sauce, marinara sauce, or garlic butter for dipping.
You can also makes these pizza rolls with any kind of pizza topping. You might include veggies or Italian seasoning or sausage - whatever your favorite flavors are, they'll work here.
