Excellent Pizza Dough

1 cup milk, scalded
1/2 cup butter (melted in milk)
1 3/4 tbsp yeast
1 tbsp honey
2 1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt

Start preparing one hour before meal. Scald milk and butter and then cool to lukewarm. Add yeast and honey and let sit until bubbly. Add flour and salt. Beat until smooth and all flour is dampened - dough will be soft and easy to handle because of the amount of butter. Let rise 10-15 minutes and until light looking, then divide and pat into two round pizza pans. Bake at 400 for 20 minutes.

I usually do 3 small pizzas on a cookie sheet for the kids and cook them for about 15 minutes and one medium for Joe and I.
