By Alex Frank at Denison University

We all love a good cake. Something about the endless layers of goodness piled high just really gets the people going. So when we heard PIZZA CAKE was a thing, we had to try it.

We're talking FOUR LAYERS of cheesy, saucy goodness nestled between the awesomeness (and convenience) of Pillsbury pizza dough. It's simply amazing.

Ingredients
  • 2 cans of Pillsbury pizza dough
  • 1 1/2 cup of pizza sauce
  • 3 cups of Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup of pepperoni

Step 1

Using base of pan, cut out 3 circles into dough. Use extra dough for mini pizzas, but do not use to roll out again (this dough cannot be handled too much). Bake these at 400°F for 8 minutes.

Roll out second can of pizza. Cut two circles as you did in step two into the upper half of the dough, bake these along with the last batch. Leave the second half of the dough laid out.
