Summary

Name: Cheese Calzone

Category: Pizza

1 lb. ricotta cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella

pinch of black pepper

NY Style Pizza Dough

Preheat oven to 500F.

Take a 6 oz. dough ball and place on floured surface. Spread,

with finger tips, to a 6 inch circle. Place 2/3 cup cheese

mix on one side and fold over other side. Seal with finger

tips making sure no cheese mixture is in the seal. Pinch

the edge to assure a tight seal. Pat calzone to even filling

inside. Check seal again for leaks. Repeat with the others.

Place calzones on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cut a

1 inch slit in the top of each for venting while baking.

Place in center of oven and bake for 10−12 minutes or until

golden brown. Serve with your favorite tomato sauce, warmed,

either on top or on the side for dipping.
