Pizza Hut Pizza Dough

Here is our tried and true pizza dough recipe. After way too many times while I was pregnant with Carter wanting Pizza Hut, and them not delivering to Hyrum, well I just searched for a copycat recipe. I did change it to fit our tastes since it does call for way too much oil, and the flour wasn't mixing in well. We use it for everything from pizza to calzones to breadsticks.

1 1/3 c warm water
1/4 c non-fat dry milk
1/2 tsp salt
3-4 c flour
1 pkg dry yeast
1 Tbsp sugar
2 Tbsp oil

Put yeast, sugar, salt and dry milk in a large (2 quart) bowl. Add water and stir to mix well. Allow to sit for 2 min. Add oil and stir again. Add flour and stir until dough forms and flour is absorbed. Knead for about 10 min. Let rise 30-60 min. Roll out to desired thickness and bake at 500 degrees for 10 min. Make sure to cook on a metal pan coated with olive oil. The more oil you add the more like the pan crust at Pizza Hut, but I generally just put a light coating on the pan.
