Step one

Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Spray baking sheet with cooking spray; set aside. Combine 63mL tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and pepperoni in medium bowl; set aside.
Step two

Unroll pizza dough; press into a 15x9-inch (38 cm x 22 cm) rectangle. Cut into 24 square pieces. Divide cheese mixture evenly and place in the center of each piece. Pull edges of each piece of dough up and around cheese mixture to enclose completely, pinching edges together to seal. Place seam-side down close together on baking sheet to form a tree shape.
Step three

Brush top of dough with Earth Balance®. Sprinkle evenly with Parmesan cheese and garlic powder. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Meanwhile, place remaining sauce in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute or until hot, stirring halfway. Serve pizza bites with sauce. Decorate with rosemary, if desired.
