Cheese Calzone

Cheese Calzone

1 lb. ricotta cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella
pinch of black pepper

NY Style Pizza Dough

Preheat oven to 500F.
Take a 6 oz. dough ball and place on floured surface. Spread, with finger tips, to a 6 inch circle. Place 2/3 cup cheese mix on one side and fold over other side. Seal with finger tips making sure no cheese mixture is in the seal. Pinch the edge to assure a tight seal. Pat calzone to even filling inside. Check seal again for leaks. Repeat with the others.

Place calzones on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cut a 1 inch slit in the top of each for venting while baking. Place in center of oven and bake for 10−12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with your favorite tomato sauce, warmed, either on top or on the side for dipping.
