Snowman pizza recipe

Serves about 8

Ingredients: 

For the crust: 

• 1 package active dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 cup warm water (110 degrees F)
• 2-1/2 cups bread flour
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt

For the topping: 

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 marinara or pizza sauce
• Black olives
• 1 small carrot sliver
• Arugula for the scarf

Directions: 

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a pizza pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the sugar, yeast and water. Let sit for about 10 minutes, or until foamy. Add in the flour, oil and salt and mix until a soft dough forms.
3. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead until soft and elastic, about 8 minutes. Cut off 1/3 of the dough and set aside.
4. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll out the larger part of the dough into a medium-size circle. Place on the greased pizza pan. Roll out the smaller piece of dough into a smaller circle. Place on top of the medium circle, slightly overlapping the medium piece.
5. Cover the medium and small circles with tomato sauce, leaving about 1/2 inch border of dough. Cover the sauce liberally with cheese. Using the olives, make two eyes, a mouth and buttons. Place the carrot sliver above the mouth for the nose.
6. Bake the pizza for about 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Using the arugula, make a scarf around the bottom of the head.
