THICK CRUST PIZZA DOUGH



Thick Crust Pizza Dough image

This dough is very easy to work with so if you're not a bread or pizza dough expert, this is a great recipe. It has a very nice consistency and tastes great too. Recipe from The Pillsbury Cookbook. I made it with Pizza Sauce and Pizza Deluxe. Cooking and prep time excludes time for dough to rise.

PIZZA - HOMEMADE, THICK CRUST



Pizza - Homemade, Thick Crust image

I found this recipe in one of my Amish Cookbooks "Cooking with the Horse and Buggy People". It makes a soft, thick crust that my family loves. My seven-year old son rated it as "1,000 thumbs up". This is a doubled version of the recipe to make 2 pizzas. If you don't like an extra-thick crust, use 1/2 of this recipe for 2 pizzas.

V'S STRAWBERRY PIZZA (THICK CRUST)



V's Strawberry Pizza (Thick Crust) image

My family loves when I make Strawberry Pizza and can hardly wait until Strawberries are in season. The most raved about part has always been the crust. So I decided to experiment and make a thicker crust pizza. This turned out to be awesome. If you enjoy this type of dessert, you gotta try my new way to make the crust thick! New family favorite. Mmmmm ;) Note: You can save time by buying prepared sugar cookie dough sheets )pkg of 3 or 1 1/2 pkg sugar cookie squares) and place them on a cookie sheet, cook for 7 minutes (Very Important not to cook any longer). Let completely cool before assembling. Pretty much how I do it most of the time ;)
