Cooking instructions
- Set out the pizza dough and let it come to room temperature (~ 15-20 minutes). Place the oven rack on the bottom level of oven. Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
- Use 2 tablespoons of flour to dust the countertop, the rolling pin, and your hands with flour. Place dough on floured countertop and roll out to be roughly 14 inches wide (in diameter). If the dough stretches back, let it rest for 5 minutes then re-roll. This should be a medium size pizza. Use 1-2 tablespoons of the flour to dust the backside of a large (ideally thin) sheet tray. Pinch, stretch and pull into pumpkin shape with stem. Place the rolled-out dough onto the prepared sheet tray.
- Carefully spread the tomato pizza sauce into the middle of the rolled-out dough and spread out evenly leaving a 1/4 inch from the edge of the dough.Pinch the bottom to form a point, and create an indent at the top to make a heart shape. Sprinkle on the mozzarella cheese then spread out the pepperoni.! Bake until the crust is golden brown, and the cheese is melted (~15-18 minutes).
- While the pizza is cooking, place the salad blend in the medium bowl. Add the buttermilk ranch dressing and mix well. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Slice the pizza after it has cooled for two minutes. Divide the salad between two plates then dig in!
- Turn the oven down to 365ºF. in preparation for baking the cookies. Move the rack to the middle of the oven. To bake the cookies: Divide the cookie dough into 4 even pieces. Form into 1/2-inch-thick cookies then place on a greased and flour baking sheet (or lined with parchment). Bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating halfway through until the cookies are golden brown and slightly cracking on top. Turn off the oven when the cookies are finished baking.
