Cheese Calzone

1 lb. ricotta cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella
pinch of black pepper
NY Style Pizza Dough
Preheat oven to 500F.
Take a 6 oz. dough ball and place on floured surface. Spread,
with finger tips, to a 6 inch circle. Place 2/3 cup cheese
mix on one side and fold over other side. Seal with finger
tips making sure no cheese mixture is in the seal. Pinch
the edge to assure a tight seal. Pat calzone to even filling
inside. Check seal again for leaks. Repeat with the others.
Place calzones on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cut a
1 inch slit in the top of each for venting while baking.
Place in center of oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until
golden brown. Serve with your favorite tomato sauce, warmed,
either on top or on the side for dipping.
