Mini Deep Dish Pizzas


I saw these bad boys on Martha a long time ago and just thought they were too cute! I love anything made in a muffin tin and since I am a self-professed pizza addict these are right up my alley. I have made them for play dates, super bowl parties and just a fun family dinner and they are always a hit. The best part is these little pizzas are the perfect beginning cooking project for little fingers to help out with.  The basic cheese recipe can be adapted by adding your favorite pizza toppings but as long as you follow the other steps you will be good to go!

1 can of pre-made biscuits
Pizza sauce
Shredded pizza cheese
Toppings of choice

Flatten each biscuit out until it doubles in size. Use each biscuit to line the muffin tin making sure the biscuit edge comes out over the top of the ledge. Bake for 5 minutes at the temperature stated on the packaging. Pull the tin out of the oven and poke holes in the bottoms of rising dough using a fork to let the air out. Fill with pizza sauce, cheese and toppings of choice and then continue baking until the crust has a golden brown color (another 5 to 10 minutes based on the packaging instructions.)
