Pizza dough 1 batch or 1 store-bought pizza dough
Mozzarella cheese 1 cup, shredded

Take note
Be careful when handling the hot pizza dough and melted cheese. Use oven mitts or a towel to protect your hands.

1

Prepare the pizza dough

Start by making or buying pizza dough. If you're feeling adventurous, try making your own dough using flour, yeast, water, salt, and olive oil. If you prefer a shortcut, store-bought pizza dough works just fine.

2

Preheat the oven and prepare the toppings

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. While the oven is heating, gather your favorite pizza toppings such as marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, veggies, or any other toppings you like.

3

Stretch and shape the pizza dough

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a circle or rectangle shape, depending on your preference. Make sure the dough is thin enough to stretch easily without tearing.

4

Create the stuffed crust

Place string cheese sticks around the edges of the rolled-out dough. Fold the edges of the dough over the cheese sticks and seal tightly. You can use a little water to help the dough stick together.

5

Add sauce and toppings

Spread a generous amount of marinara sauce on the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Top with your favorite toppings and sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella cheese over everything.

6

Bake to cheesy perfection

Carefully transfer the pizza onto the prepared baking sheet and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.

7

Slice and enjoy!

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice the pizza into desired portions. Grab a slice, savor the melty cheese, and enjoy the cheesy goodness!
