Fast and yummy mini focaccia treats baked in muffin pans, made from grocery store pizza dough mixed with garlic, rosemary sprigs, and lots of olive oil for that real Italian flavor.

# Needed Ingredients:

04 - Mince the garlic and strip rosemary leaves from stems, put aside
05 - Warm remaining oil until quite hot (flick water in to test), take off heat, toss in garlic and rosemary
06 - Drizzle all the flavored oil over dough balls, poke holes with fingertips, pushing herbs and garlic into the dough
07 - Pop in oven for 14-16 minutes, use foil to cover if tops get too dark
