When you want to find a solid triangular shaped delivery device for one of the most comforting of all comfort foods, you choose pizza. Look out for this Macaroni and Cheese pizza recipe, we keep it simple and we keep it cheesy. Extra cheesy.
An idea that you can’t believe you didn’t try sooner, this pizza brings you all the warmth of a big bowl of mac and cheese, but with more layers of cheddar and mozzarella cheese and a wild sourdough crust to be graced with the presence of, some may say, too much cheese. But we often ask ourselves, can there be such a thing as too much cheese, we think not.

Instructions
Wild Dough (1 hour)
- Make your dough by mixing the sourdough starter, flour and salt together (adding a bit of flour at a time until it takes shape but is still a little sticky) and knead the dough for about 30 seconds.
- Place the dough in lightly floured bowl and cover with a towel, set aside for 1 hour. (The pizza steel or stone needs to preheat for 1 hour as well, so preheat oven to 550 degrees after you finish making your pizza dough)
Cheddar Cheese Sauce**
- Grate cheddar cheese.
- Heat large pot to medium and melt butter, whisking constantly. Add flour and whisk 30 seconds. Add cream and whisk to mix well, then add cheddar cheese, salt and pepper.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and whisk until desired thickness. Reserve 1 cup of cheese sauce for the pizza sauce. Use remaining cheese sauce for macaroni and cheese.
Macaroni and Cheese*
- Bring water to a boil in a large pot, then add noodles. Bring to a boil and cook for 8-10 minutes. Drain. Add remaining cheese sauce and mix well.
PIZZA (8-10 minutes)
