5. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and roll or pat into one 12″ crust or 4 individual crusts.
6. Transfer to a pizza stone or a lightly oiled pizza pan.

Now have the kids splash a little pizza sauce on each crust and spread it around with the back of a spoon.
Top your pizza crust with a handful of mozzarella cheese and any other toppings you fancy.
Bake your pizza at 450ºF for 15-20 minutes (large pizza) or 10-15 minutes (smaller pizzas).
