Homemade Meatlover's Pizza

Ingredients:

• 1 roll of Pillsbury rolled pizza crust

• 1 pkg. Mozzarella cheese

• 1/2 can of Tomato sauce

• pinch of Basil

• 5-6 pieces Turkey Bacon

• Hamburger (use however much you like)

Roll out pizza crust to desired thickness on a pizza sheet. Brown hamburger and microwave bacon. Spread tomato sauce over unbaked crust. Sprinkle the basil on top. Next top with the package of cheese. Follow with the cooked hamburger and bacon. Bake in the oven at 425 for 8-13 minutes. Enjoy!

You can use whatever toppings you would like - Spence and I usually like the meatlovers. This is our version, but usually on the Pillsbury pizza crust tube you can follow the directions on there for their pizza.

2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
6 ounces milk chocolate chips

Instructions:
In mixing bowl, combine first five ingredients; beat 2 minutes. Add egg. Combine flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture, mixing well after each addition. Stir in milk chocolate chips.

Drop by tablespoons 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes or until starting to brown. Cool at least 2 minutes before removing to wire rack. Yields about 2-1/2 dozen cookies.

I made these for a recent cookie exchange and they are AMAZING. I think these will be my go to cookies. I know I will never make just plain chocolate chip cookies again. They taste the best right out of the oven warm, but that doesn't stop me or my husband putting a couple in the microwave to warm and enjoy!
