Instructions

In the bowl of a mixer with a dough hook, combine warm water, active dry yeast, and sugar. Let it dissolve.
Add olive oil, salt, and bread flour. Knead until smooth and elastic.
Spread the dough into a well oiled 9×13 pan, to prevent sticking. Let it rise for an hour in a warm spot.
Cube the blocks of Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese.
After the dough rises, top with pepperoni, cheese cubes, and 3 lines of pizza sauce.
Top the pizza sauce lines with more pepperoni.
Bake at 525 degrees for 15 minutes or until bubbly and golden.
Cool for a few minutes, and slide the pizza out of the pan and on to a cutting board.
Slice the pizza into squares with a knife of pizza cutter.
Serve and enjoy your delicious Detroit-style square pizza!
