Distribute 20 pepperoni slices in 5 rows of 4 slices each on top of the sauce. Sprinkle the remaining 1 1/2 cups mozzarella over the pepperoni.

Carefully place the top section of rolls over the cheese layer.

Using a pastry brush, coat the tops of the rolls with melted butter. Sprinkle grated Parmesan and dried Italian seasoning evenly over the buttered rolls.
