Next, spread a thin layer of sauce over the crust. Add mozzarella slices over the dough. Be sure to overlap slices, in circular pattern until fully covered. If preparing pepperoni pizza, add a layer of pepperoni and then sprinkle with the Parmesan; or if preparing Margarita pizza, sprinkle with sliced Basil.
