Best Pizza Dough Recipe Ever!!!!!

So Mike has this awesome pizza dough recipe that is fantastic. We use it all the time! Here it is:

1. Combine...............1 cup warm water
                                 1 T. dry yeast
                                 1 T. sugar
                               1/2 t. salt
                                 2 T. olive oil
                               1/4 cup salad oil (vegetable oil)

2. Stir in for 2 min..................2 3/4 cups flour, sifted (if needed, add more flour until dough is slightly tacky)

3. Knead dough 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes.

4. Roll dough almost to pan size & transfer to a greased pan that has corn meal sprinkled on the pan. (Corn meal is optional.) Finish shaping dough to pan.

5. Bake at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

6. Add your favorite sauce and toppings to the half baked crust.

7. Bake at 400 degrees for an additional 8-10 minutes or until crust in golden brown.

8. Enjoy!

If you want to make the dough ahead of time, you can freeze or refrigerate the dough overnight. All you need to do is place the kneaded dough in a greased plastic bag. Seal the bag and place it in the refrigerator. The next day, just pull out the dough, punch it down and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. Continue as normal. You can also roll out the dough on the pan and refrigerate it that way as well.

Love,
