It tasted great! I recommend making sure that the dough is thin and baked thoroughly to get a more crunchy texture. Will definitely make it again

No need to preheat the oven until AFTER you pull the dough out of the fridge 😉

Make sure the cheese dough is well melted before putting it in the mixture, otherwise it will come out like a biscuit.

Definitely bake the rolled-out dough for 8-10mins before adding toppings- needs that crunch. Tasted great!
