Pizza Dough

Once you see how simple pizzas are to make, you will never
order one to be delivered again!
Makes 2 pounds dough (two, 12 to 14-inch crusts)
2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 cup warm water (105°F to 110°F)
3½ cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
1½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup cold water
Flour for dusting
1. Dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water in the liquid
measuring cup. Let sit until foamy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
2. Assemble the Cuisinart
Maker with the dough kneading paddle. Place the flour and
salt in the mixing bowl. Secure the lid onto the mixing
container.
3. Select Knead Bread to start kneading.
4. Add the olive oil and the remaining ¼ cup cold water to
the dissolved yeast, then slowly pour the mixture through
the opening in the lid, in a zigzagging stream, to evenly
distribute. The dough will have a shaggy appearance at first,
until all the liquid is absorbed and it comes together into a
sticky ball. If necessary, add another knead cycle for a
smooth, dough ball. The dough should be slightly sticky.

5. When the kneading ends, remove lid and take out the dough
ball, using a spatula to unstick the dough from the paddle,
if needed. Gather the dough ball on a lightly floured surface,
kneading once or twice by hand until a smooth ball is
formed. Transfer the dough ball to a large mixing bowl, dust
lightly with flour and cover with plastic wrap. Let dough rise
in a warm, draft-free place for about 45 minutes, until doubled
in size.
6. Place dough on a lightly floured surface; punch down and
let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Roll into desired crust sizes and
