My Favorite Pizza - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 (14-inch) rounds pizza dough
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 1/2 lb. pepperoni, sliced thin
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
2 (7 1/2 oz.) cans tomato sauce
1 tsp. anise seed
4 cloves garlic, crushed
12 oz. Mozzarella cheese
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tbsp. olive oil

Preparation

Heat oven to 450\u00b0. Line 2 (14-inch) pizza pans with dough. Drizzle each dough with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside 24 slices of the pepperoni to be used later. Sprinkle the remaining pepperoni slices over the 2 doughs. Sprinkle 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese over both doughs. Combine tomato sauce, oregano, anise seed and garlic; pour half of mixture on each pie, spreading evenly. Grate Mozzarella cheese and put half on each pie. Put rest of Parmesan cheese over both pies. Drizzle each pie with 1 tablespoon olive oil and trim edges with pepperoni slices you set aside. Bake 25 minutes or until crust is browned and filling is bubbling well. Serve hot.
