New York Style Pizza & Calzone Crust created by Shasha

This is a combination of 2 different recipes I found. This makes a little denser crust. It is also perfect for garlic rolls.... This is easiest to make in a mixer you mix it fairly wet. I wouldn't know how to do it in a bread machine, but I bet you could. Also, I occasionally add Parmesan Cheese, granulated garlic or Italian herbs in with the second half of the flour.

add remaining flour.
Turn out onto lightly floured surface and knead 5 minutes.
Divide into 2 equal balls, place in oiled bowls and cover with plastic wrap.
Allow to rise for 1 1/2 hours in warm location (I have done as little as 45 minutes -no problems).
Place dough on a lightly floured surface and sprinkle flour over the top.
Working from the edges to the center, press dough into a circle (12 inches).
Add sauce and ingredients, bake in a 500 degree oven for 20-25 minutes.

This turned out pretty good -- served them at a dinner party and everyone loved it more than I did :)
