It’s no secret that I love pizza. Pretty much any kind of pizza. They are all delicious. Only way to make a pizza more amazing than it already is? Making it a cheese stuffed crust pizza!
So how do you go about stuffing a pizza crust? EASY! Roll out the pizza dough larger than the pizza pan you’re going to use. Then, place the dough crust on the floured pizza pan. Line around the edges with mozzarella cheese sticks.
Then, pull the extra dough over the cheesesticks and press well into the bottom of the pizza crust to seal the cheese in.
DONE!! You now have a cheese stuffed crust on your pizza! Now, add your sauce and make your pizza with all the favorite toppings of your choosing! Throw that thing in a preheated oven at 450 for 10-15 minutes. For even tastier results, throw it in a smoker, like this one, at 450 for 10-15 minutes!
Seriously, how easy was it to up the ante on an already wonderful pizza masterpiece?! Slice and enjoy! Let me know in the comments what kind of pizza you would love even more with a cheese stuffed crust!
