This recipe works great for Pizza Night! I usually add a little garlic powder to the dry ingredients, or use garlic infused olive oil - it adds good flavor to the dough. I knead the dough using the dough hook attachment on my stand mixer, which works well. I recommend pre-baking the crust for 4 or 5 minutes before adding sauce and ingredients so that you don't end up with soggy pizza.
