Layer the Ingredients: Spread the remaining 1/4 cup of buffalo wing sauce evenly across the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Next, layer the buffalo chicken mixture on the sauce. To finish, sprinkle an even layer of 8 oz of shredded mozzarella cheese and 8 oz of shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken.

Rolling the Dough: Starting from one long edge, carefully roll the dough tightly over the filling, tucking in the edges as you go. Seal both ends securely to avoid a messy spill during baking.
