{A.T.K. Pizza and Cricket's Garlic Rolls}

Wow! These were a winning combination for sure!
We made the ATK pizza for dinner the other night. Next to Ina's grilled pizza dough, this was definitely my favorite. Not only was the flavor really tasty but the method was so quick and easy to clean up after. Hello, food processor! I paired these with Cricket's Cafe's garlic rolls. Oh.My.Goodness!

What You'll Need: {makes two average sized pizzas}
4 1/2 c bread flour or all purpose flour
2 1/4 t {one envelope} of dry active yeast
2 T olive oil
1 1/2 t salt
1 1/2 c warm water


What To Do:
Pulse 4 cups of flour, the salt, and the yeast in a food processor fitted with a dough blade until mixed. While running, add oil and water through the feed tube on the top. Mix until a rough ball is formed (30 to 40 seconds). Turn off the mixer and let sit for two minutes. Then pulse for another 30 seconds.

Turn the dough ball out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until a smooth ball can be formed (about 5 minutes). Form into a ball, place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic and let it sit in a warm spot until doubled in size (about 1 1/2 hours).

When ready, punch down dough. Turn out onto work surface and cut in half. Roll or stretch the dough to fit your pans and top. Bake at 500 until cheese has melted and crust just starts to brown.

Cricket's Cafe Garlic Rolls

What You'll Need:
4-9 fresh cloves of garlic, minced
2T Dried Parsley
1T Dried Thyme
1 Cup Olive Oil
2 packages of Pillsbury Bread Sticks {I used 1 package of crescent rolls}
Kosher Salt

What To Do:
Add first four ingredients into a glass jar and share to mix. Let sit. The longer the better. {I let ours sit for a couple of hours but I'm guessing you could go days.}
Open your package of bread sticks or cresent rolls. Seperate the pieces and, if using bread sticks, cut into three strips. If using crescent rolls, cut triangles in half to make two skinny pizza slice shapes. Tie into knots.

Bake as directed until lightly browned but not overdone. Using a basting brush, brush on the oil mixture and serve hot.
