Hi

Hint: best if allowed to refrigerator for at least 1 hours.
7

Also may need to add more flour so dough may be handled, all purpose flour would be best.
8

Roll out dough no thinner then 1/2 inches thick.
9

Place on increased baking sheet (my favorite is the air bake sheet).
10

Bake at 450 for 10 to 12 minutes.
11

This dough can be refrigerated for up to 1 weeks or frozen for longer but make sure you give it time to warm up.

It will be easier to work with.
