Who knew pizza could be this much fun? Picture this:
your favorite pizza toppings, but in a whimsical cone shape that’s perfect for a party or a cozy night in. It’s like an edible adventure—crispy, cheesy, and endlessly customizable.
Imagine munching on these while watching the latest hit series on Netflix, or serving them at a gathering where everyone gets to play chef.
Steps
- Roll out the pizza dough to about 1/8 inch thick to ensure it fits the cutter twice. This thin crust doesn’t require much rolling.
- Cut the dough into the required shape and remove any extra dough. Use the leftover dough to make breadsticks.
- Wet the edges of the dough with water, fold it over in half, and press down to seal. Use a crimper along the edges to ensure it is sealed well.
- Allow the cones to rest on the cutting board for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400°F.
- After the dough has rested, gently slide it onto the pizza cone form. Bake for 6-7 minutes until the cone starts browning.
- Place the cone in the pizza cone stand and fill it with your chosen pizza toppings. Return the filled cones to the oven and bake until the tops are golden and bubbly. Let them cool slightly before serving.
