  1. Total prep time is actually 2.5 hours (not 30-minutes), counting the 1 hour rising time, 35 minutes par-baking time (8 minutes per crust), and estimated 30-minutes cooling time before topping/wrapping.

  2. These were delicious. I will definitely be making another batch when I run out.

  3. We love pizza so much in this house and I’ve been looking for a freezer recipe! This is the easiest to follow and I love the cardboard cut out idea. This is going to save me so much time and money!
