Pizza Hut's A Pizza Inside A Pizza

Courses: Main Course, Pizzas
Serves: 8 people

Recipe Ingredients

2   Refrigerated pizza dough
2 3/4 cups 651mlShredded mozzarella - divided use
3/4 cup 177mlShredded Monterey Jack
3/4 cup 177mlShredded Cheddar
3/4 cup 177mlShredded Provolone
2 tablespoons 30mlGrated Parmesan
2 tablespoons 30mlGrated Romano
  Toppings of your choice
  = (pepperoni, bell peppers, olives, etc)
1   Pizza sauce

Recipe Instructions

Preheat oven to 475 degrees.

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.

This recipe yields 8 servings.
