Roll the pizza dough out into a 1/4-inch-thick rectangle. Cut into 2-inch-wide strips, then into 2-inch squares.

Place a cube of mozzarella cheese at the center of a dough square. Brush the edges with a little bit of water and fold the edges over the cheese, securing tightly. Roll into a ball, then place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
