2 Tbs extra virgin olive oil

1 ball frozen pizza dough (see note)

1 cup pizza sauce

1/2 cup fresh mozzarella, torn

1/4 cup fresh basil, torn

Additional toppings, as desired

Parmesan cheese, for garnish

 

Pour olive oil into a large bowl. Rub with a paper towel to coat the sides. Place frozen dough in the bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel. Let the dough thaw overnight in the bowl.  Place the bowl on the counter for 4 hours before baking so the dough can rise.

 

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Roll dough into a circle. Place on a baking sheet. Use a pizza cutter to trim into a heart shape. Add the sauce, cheese and other desired toppings. Bake for 15 minutes or until crust is golden and cooked through. Add basil and parmesan cheese.

 

Note: Frozen pizza dough is available at Aldi, Sprouts, Sweet Gourmet-Tyler, TX. You can also ask at some pizza restaurants.
