Little Nero's Cheese Pizza

For when Buzz steals the last slice, make your own! Serve with a glass of milk, Kevin McAllister-style. The smoky cheese blend provides a distinct flavor reminiscent of a wood-fired pie from a standard in-home oven and the pre-heated cooking surface doubles down on the difficult-to-attain-at-home crusty crunch.

Ingredients

• 1 cup marinara sauce
• ⅓ cup shaved Parmesan cheese
• ½ cup shredded fresh basil
• 1 (16 ounce) package prepared pizza dough
• 1 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
• cornmeal, or as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) with a pizza stone or inverted sheet tray on the middle rack.

Step 2

Allow dough to come to room temperature, covered, on the counter.

Step 3

Lightly dust a pizza peel or inverted sheet tray with cornmeal. Roll dough into a 16-inch circle on top. Top dough with marinara sauce, mozzarella, Gouda, Jarlsberg, Parmesan, and basil. Transfer pizza directly on to the preheated stone.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until preferred level of browning is attained, 14 to 16 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 6 slices.
