The Double Decadence, was a pizza made by stuffing the base of a pizza with cheese sauce, loading it with any toppings you want, and it hit the spot every time. But they don't make them anymore, so we've make our own version, with a little twist, and it's a bit more grown up with N'duja and hot honey!

Method

  • For the pizza dough, head over to any of our pizza recipes for a detailed recipe - instead, you can by pre-made pizza dough from the store!
  • To make the cheese sauce, toss the grated cheese in the cornstarch, add to a saucepan with the unsweetened evaporated milk, garlic powder and italian herbs. Melt over medium-low heat until fully melted. Whisk constantly. 
  • Make a quick pizza sauce by cooking off some passata, with fresh Italian herbs like basil and oregano, and a couple cloves of garlic. 
  • When everything is ready, organise al the toppings and sauces. Roll out the dough, into a large rectangle. Split the dough in half, and spread the cheese sauce over one side. Fold the other half over and press the edges shut.
  • Top the dough with our tomato sauce, mozzarella, and n'duja. With a pizza cutter, cut strips, twist the strips and place on a baking tray. Finish with more n'duja and mozzarella, before baking at 200°c for 20-25 minutes.
  • Garnish with hot honey, and fresh thyme, and eat whilst they're still hot!
