Last night my cooking club had a Gourmet Pizza themed night.
We had about 8 or 9 people. Two people didn't bring anything (sometimes guests and/or people who can't come till late don't bring anything)
We had:
-Pancetta Zucchini Pizza
-Italian White Pizza
-Roasted Red and Yellow Peppers and Goat Cheese Pizza
-Tandoori Chicken Pizza
-Chocolate Pizza
-Fruit Pizza with Cookie Dough Crust
-Fig and Goat cheese pizza with Port reduction.
Plus we also had a salad, because one of the members figured we'd be eating a lot of pizza (a lot of carbs) and it would be a good idea to have something good for us.
The Pizza that I made was the Italian White Pizza.
The recipe:
1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1 cup Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp Garlic Salt
1/4 tsp Pepper
1/4 cup freshly chopped Basil
1 12inch Pizza Crust
Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F.
If using a pizza stone, allow pizza stone to get hot in pre-heating oven.
Mix Mozzarella, Ricotta, Parmesan cheeses, Italian seasoning, Garlic Salt and pepper together in a bowl.
Place pizza crust on preheated Pizza stone or on fresh baking sheet.
Top crust with cheese and seasoning mixture. Sprinkle with fresh basil.
Bake in oven for 10 - 14 minutes or until the cheese is melted and lightly browned.

The white pizza was Delicious! I love white pizza myself, I'm not a big fan of Pizza Sauce. I actually couldn't eat the Tandoori Chicken Pizza because the sauce had mushrooms in it and I'm allergic to them.
The Fruit Pizza was really good. The chocolate pizza killed me, it was way too much chocolate. The fruit pizza was also a little too sweet for my taste (I'm real weird about sweets and I don't really like chocolate!) but it was definitely good. I can see if my friend will give me the recipe if you want it.

Yeah, I'd like the recipe if you can get it for me. You can email it to me if you want. I'm kinda picky about fruit stuff too. I think it can be a little sickly sweet sometimes. The cookie dough crust sounds really good though. I like apple pies, but I only like the gooey stuff. I'm like that with the fruit pizza things. I like the goo. I'm not all about eating really chunky stuff. I don't really care for pizza sauce myself and my mom told me I need to try white pizza.

The white pizza is really good. It's all cheesy! I love cheese. You should try it.
Gooey stuff rules! I can only take so much fruit in general. Like I can't even eat a whole slice of pizza. I bake a lot and bring stuff to work, because I like baking but I don't like most of the stuff myself.
The fruit recipe was on About.com.
It's located here:

that was a long website to type without being able to copy!
