15-20 pepperoni slices, cut into 1/4s

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spread cream cheese across the bottom of a round pie dish. Sprinkle 1 cup of cheese over top. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder and oregano. Spread pizza sauce over this. Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of cheese and 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder and oregano. Place pepperoni 1/4s evenly over the top.
