Ingredients

• 1 piece (about 12-inch) Pizza dough
• 5 ounces Boursin cheese (Garlic & Fine Herbs)
• 0.5 cup Sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil)
• 6 ounces Fresh mozzarella cheese
• 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Cornmeal (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat up.

Step 2

Dust your work surface with a small amount of flour and roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch round. Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper lightly dusted with cornmeal.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and minced garlic. Brush this mixture over the surface of the pizza dough to create a flavorful base.

Step 4

Spread the Boursin cheese evenly across the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch of crust around the edges.

Step 5

Scatter the sun-dried tomatoes over the cheese, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Tear the fresh mozzarella into small chunks and distribute them evenly across the pizza.

Step 7

Sprinkle the red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and black pepper over the toppings.

Step 8

Carefully slide the pizza, still on the parchment paper, onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven.

Step 9

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
