Things to do with Pizza Dough

I have an absolute favorite pizza dough recipe (The Benefit of the Dough from Eat, Shrink and Be Merry).

I have been making it over and over again for the last several months, primarily for pizzas and flatbreads.

Well, last week I got a bit creative and tried 2 new (and simple!!) ways to eat this delicious dough.

The first of these was cheese straws:



(sorry about the horrible lack of focus)

To make these, I rolled out a half recipe of dough into a rough rectangle, and sprinkled with cheese. Then, I cut it into strips, twisted, and baked!! Couldn't be easier.



Next, I made a sweet roll. I just spread the other half recipe of rolled out dough with pumpkin butter (any jam would work too!!), rolled up a la cinnamon buns, sliced, and baked!



Both variations were delicious, easy, and definately not pizza!! Have you tried any awesome variations on a basic recipe recently?
