Ingredients
- 1 lb pizza dough store-bought or homemade, brought to room temperature
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese preferably whole milk, freshly shredded for the best melt
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
Step 2: Roll Out the Dough
- Lightly flour your work surface and place the pizza dough on it.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to about 1/8-inch (0.3 cm) thickness for maximum crispiness.
- Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3: Add the Cheese
- Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the entire surface of the dough.
- If needed, gently press the cheese into the dough with your fingers to help it adhere.
Step 4: Bake
- Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- Watch for the cheese to melt, bubble, and start to turn a light golden brown along the edges, while the dough becomes crisp and golden.
Step 5: Cool and Cut
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the pizza chips cool for about 5 minutes on a cooling rack.
- Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the baked dough into bite-sized chips or your preferred shapes (triangles, squares, etc.).
Step 6: Serve
- Enjoy your warm 2 Ingredient Pizza Chips as they are, or serve with your favorite dipping sauce like marinara or garlic aioli.
Notes
- Extra Flavor Boost: For an aromatic touch, sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano or basil on the chips immediately after baking.
- Garlic Option: For a subtle garlic flavor, lightly rub a cut garlic clove over the warm chips.
- Storage: Best enjoyed fresh! If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes to restore crispiness.
- Variations: Experiment with a blend of cheeses (such as adding a bit of provolone) or adjust the thickness of the dough to customize the crunchiness to your liking.
