I found a pan at Target for $6.99. I have ordered it as other sites had the pan for $25-$30. It is a NordicWare Bronze pan.

Recipe is great, however, there is no need to struggle with putting the dough in the pan. Follow the directions but make the pizza pocket outside of the pan pinched everything together and then put it in the pan. when it Cooks it fills out perfectly fine all the details are there you end up with the same result with way less of a headache.

These turned out great! Big hit and very tasty. Ordered the pan from Nordicware and also got the tombstone pan. :) The possibilities are endless as far as fillings and I can't wait to try different combinations.
