Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • pinch of black pepper
  • NY Style Pizza Dough

Instructions

  • 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.
