Gourmet Skookie Pizzas!

 I had the opportunity over the weekend to go to a gourmet Skookie pizza party!  My friend put together the party, and we had such a fun time.  She bought a lot of different ingredients that weren’t your typical pepperoni pizza, it was a gourmet pizza party!  Here is a list of some of the great pizzas we came up with and some pictures (not great pictures…I need to work on my photography skills!).

To make pizzas:

Use either a store bought or homemade dough for the pizza crust.  Form dough into oiled pan and press to the edges of pan.  Place in 400 degree oven and pre-bake the crust for 7 minutes.  Remove from oven and add toppings.  Return pizza to oven and cook another 7 minutes, or until cheese is melted and crust is starting to brown.

    How much and what kind of dough do you use to make these pizzas? Also, maybe you could explain what temperature and how long these should be cooked. I am guessing that any oven would work.

    Michelle,
    Thank you for letting me know that I failed to add that information. Let me know if you have any other questions! Thanks!

    Thanks. I never thought of using these skillets for anything besides the skookies. I will have to give the pizzas a try. I will be the best grandma ever. Personal pizzas coming right up.

    How do I get recipes for the Skookie Cobbler Pots? I would like to do something other than the cobbler mix which comes with them. Thank you!
