Basic Pizza Crust. Sprinkle yeast over 1 1/2 cups warm (not lukewarm) water.
Let stand for a few minutes. In a mixer, combine flour and salt. With the mixer running on low speed (with paddle attachment), drizzle in olive oil until combined with flour. Next, pour in yeast/water mixture and mix until just combined, and the dough comes together in a sticky mass. Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil, and form the dough into a ball. Note: it’s best to make the dough at least 24 hours in advance, and 3 or 4 days is even better.
When you are ready to make the pizza, grab HALF the pizza dough (recipe makes 2 crusts) and squeeze the dough toward the bottom to form a nice, tight, pulled ball. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich. Making Miniature Stuffed Pizzas in Springforms.
Stuffed pizzas are a Chicagoan delicacy consisting of layers of cheese and fillings above– and below– a thin pizza crust.
One of the best ways to bake them is in a springform pan, so that the sides come out in perfect cylinders and come out easily. Taken to the small extreme, individual-sized stuffed pizzas are the ideal portable food to take to work for lunch. Made in miniature springform pans, they are compact, cute, tasty, filling, and are almost guaranteed to make your co-workers jealous.
Read on and we’ll show you how to make your own springform stuffed pizza, in any size you like.

The possibilities are endless of the varieties you could make (check out the Apple Dessert Braid!) , but the recipe below is for a very basic hamburger and pepperoni braid. You could make your own dough, but I prefer the shortcut of using Rhodes rise and bake dough. This is one of my favorite shortcuts to make a nice loaf of bread or use in recipes like this one.

Slice the roast beef into 1/2-inch strips. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the beef strips, Worcestershire sauce and spices. Toss it around with some tongs and let it hang out on low while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
