directions

  • Preheat oven to 475ºF.
  • On a lightly floured surface, unroll first pizza dough.
  • Using a rolling pin dusted with flour, roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
  • Place in a well-greased 12-inch perforated pizza pan.
  • Trim dough with a knife or pizza wheel to fit inside the diameter of the pan.
  • Pierce dough with a fork every half-inch to prevent air bubbles.
  • (This will ultimately be your top crust.) Prebake this crust for 5 minutes; remove crust from pan and place on a wire rack to cool.
  • Prepare the second crust for the pan in the same way, but remove the excess dough around the edges by rolling a rolling pin over the top of the pan to form a lip on the crust.
  • Pierce with a fork.
  • Combine 3/4 cup mozzarella and remaining cheeses and spread evenly over this crust.
  • Put the partially baked crust on top of the cheese layer.
  • Spread 1/2 cup of pizza sauce over this top crust, then scatter the toppings of your choice, starting with meats, then vegetables.
  • Finish with the final 2 cups of mozzarella.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.

  1. I loved the concept of this pizza. I made it last night, but unfortunately, I had big problems with the refrigerated dough from the store. I still enjoyed this pizza. This is a knife and fork kind of pizza. Very gooey, and good. I left off all toppings, and made it just a cheese pizza, and it was great. Next time, yes, there will be a next time, I will top it with our favorite toppings.

I am a full time stay-at-home mom of two kids, a girl who's 8 and a very busy 5 yr old son, who has just started Kindergarden and loving it.As am I, I'm starting to sense what freedom from the SAHM life is!!! I have been married to my wonderful husband for ten years. I enjoy scrapbooking, reading, camping, doing various crafts and spending time with my family. I completed my Doula training in fall of 2004 and had the opportunity to attend a few other births. I really enjoy attending births and assisting women during this amazing time.I have expanded on my doula work by working privately for a family post-partum, 2 days a week. This keeps me busy, but I know that this is not my forever job. However now that my kids are both in school, I have started to think about "what I want to be when I grow up!!" Zaar is an addiction started by my good friend,Pamela and has spread to include several other friends.
