Thin crust cheese burst Pizza

CHEESEESY CRISPY PIZZA ALERT! Two crispy thin crust pizza based sandwiched with a creamy cheese burst sauce, topped with pizza sauce, more cheese and your favorite pizza toppings! Inspired by The double cheese crunch pizza Dominoes India had some ten odd years back which I terribly miss! Its crispy pizza with cheese overload so no complains! The only reason, I sometimes don’t like cheese burst pizzas is that the crust gets too thick and doughy for me, but this solves that!! Make this for a dinner, date night, movie night, game day and it’ll be the star after you, for making it! It’s too delicious not to try!
