Method
Making Garlic Cream Sauce
Melt Butter
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add Garlic
Add the minced garlic cloves to the melted butter and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Add Cream
Pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Season Sauce
Add salt, black pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce. Stir until well combined and simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Remove from Heat
Remove the sauce from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Assembling the Pizza
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
Roll Out Dough
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a pizza peel or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spread Sauce
Spread a generous layer of the garlic cream sauce over the pizza dough, leaving about an inch around the edges for the crust.
Add Cheeses
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce. Then add slices of fresh mozzarella, followed by the shredded fontina cheese. Finally, dollop the stracciatella cheese on top.
Bake Pizza
Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven (or onto the pizza stone). Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Cool and Slice
Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve warm.
