Cheese Pizzettes

Directions

1. 1
   Mix the mozzarella cheese and Parmesan together in a medium bowl, then set aside.
2. 2
   Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface to 1/4-inch thick.
3. 3
   Using a 2 3/4-inch-diameter cookie cutter, cut out dough rounds.
4. 4
   Add enough oil to a heavy large frying pan with 3-inch sides to come halfway up the sides of the pan.
5. 5
   Heat the oil over medium heat until hot.
6. 6
   Drop a scrap of dough into the oil to ensure the oil is hot enough.
7. 7
   If the dough sizzles, then the oil is hot enough.
8. 8
   Working in batches, add the dough rounds to the hot oil (being sure not to crowd them in the pan) and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
9. 9
   Using a slotted spoon, transfer the rounds to paper towels to drain the excess oil.

    Immediately sprinkle the cheese mixture over the hot pizzas.
