1 tablespoon dry active yeast
1 1/4 cups warm water
1/4 cup olive oil
3 1/2-4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup cream
5 ounces gorgonzola
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
fresh ground pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil, for brushing

Steps:

Stir yeast in warm water in a large bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes.
Combine the flour, olive oil and yeast mixture in a food processor until it forms a ball. Knead a bit on a floured surface, then put in an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for about 1 1/2 hours.
Flatten the dough on a cookie sheet until about 1/4 to 1/2 inch in thickness. Dimple the dough with your fingers.
Combine cream, cheese and rosemary in a food processor. Smooth the cheese mixture over the top of the dough. Brush some oil and sprinkle some black pepper on top. Let rise for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake for 20 minutes. Best served warm.
