Heart Shaped Pizza

1. Make or purchase pizza dough and get out any cheeses, sauces, or toppings you want to add to your pizza.
2. Knead the dough as instructed in packet or recipe.
3. Use some creativity to create the heart shape.
   1. Roll the dough into a circle.
   2. Pinch the dough in one place to draw it down into a heart shape or cut the heart shape into the dough.
4. Spread the sauce on the pizza.
5. Add your mom’s favorite toppings.
6. Place in an oven at a temperature suggested by the dough packet or recipe and keep an eye on it (you don’t want your Mother’s Day present to burn!).
7. Remove from oven and serve with your mom’s favorite beverage!

For something extra, make your own pizza box card to go along with your edible masterpiece. Give it to your mom first and then unveil your heart shaped treat.
