Proof them overnight for breakfast or during the day for dinner!

PIZZA DOUGH BALLS

Our pizza dough is versatile and can be made into a deep dish pan pizza or a thin crust hearth baked pizza. It’s up to you and what equipment you have at home. For best results, make sure the dough is fully thawed and THEN let it rise at room temperature for at least two hours and no more than six hours. Shape as desired, top, then let rise again before baking at 475 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. 

PAR BAKED PIZZA DOUGH

Remove from package and let thaw. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Add whatever toppings. Bake 15 to 20 minutes until cheese is bubbling and heated thru.

TAKE AND BAKE COOKIES

Cut into desired thickness. This makes 12- 1.3 ounce cookies, baking instructions are based on this amount and size for a chewy, gooey cookie. Bake at 300 degrees 12 to 15 minutes. Adjust baking temperature and time for different sizes or a crunchy cookie. 

TAKE AND BAKE BROWNIES

Remove lid before baking. Bake at 300 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes. For fudgy brownies your batter tester should have a little crumb when ready. Unbaked brownie can be frozen up to three months and baked from frozen. 

SOME GENERAL TAKE & BAKE INFORMATION

With dozens of models of home ovens in various states of repair, it’s hard to give exact times and temperatures. We encourage you to try slight variations on the guidelines above to find what works best for your home! This is part of the fun of baking; even when the first twenty steps are the same, you can achieve very different results with the last few steps.

In general, a higher baking temperature will give more rise and produce a darker but thinner crust. Higher baking temperatures are well suited for low sugar products (such as our croissants and biscuits).

In general a lower baking temperature will give less rise and produce a thicker but lighter crust. Lower baking temperatures allow more time for the heat to reach the center of the product, and so prevent the “too dark but still raw” syndrome; if you are experiencing this it is a sure sign to try a lower baking temperature.
