    List of Ingredients




    Tomato Sauce:
    1 28oz. can Italian-style tomatoes
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
    2 tablespoons tomato paste
    2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
    1 tablespoon minced garlic

    Topping:
    6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
    8 cups coarsely chopped green cabbage (about 1/2 large head)
    6 tablespoons whipping cream
    1/2 ground nutmeg
    2 cups ground mozzarella cheese (about 8 ounces)
    1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (about 3 ounces).
    4 ounces cream cheese, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
    4 tablespoons pine nuts
    10 thin prosciutto slices

    Crust:
    1 cup warm water (105 degrees F to 115 degrees F)
    1 envelope dry yeast
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 and 1/2 cups (approximately), bread flour

    For sauce:
    Combine all ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Break up tomatoes with back of spoon. Simmer uncovered until sauce thickens and is reduced to 1 and 3/4 cups, stirring frequently, about 35 minutes. Cool. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate).

    For crust:
    Place 1 cup warm water in large bowl. Sprinkle yeast over; stir to blend. Let stand until yeast dissolves, about 10 minutes. Add oil and salt. Using wooden spoon, mix in enough flour 1/2 cup at a time to form soft and slightly sticky dough. Turn dough out onto floured surface and knead until smooth, adding more flour if dough is too sticky, about 10 minutes.
    Form dough into a ball. Oil large bowl. Place dough in bowl, turning to coat with oil. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, then towel. Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Punch down dough. Let rise again until doubled, about 1 hour.
    Meanwhile, prepare topping: Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add cabbage and stir to coat with butter. Cover skillet and cook until cabbage is tender, about 8 minutes. Uncover, add cream and simmer until cream is reduced to glaze, about 5 minutes. Mix in nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
    Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Flour two 12-inch
    pizza pans or large baking sheets. Punch down dough. Divide in half. Roll out 1 dough half on floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to prepared pan. Repeat with second dough piece. Spread half of tomato sauce evenly over each pizza. Top each with half of mozzarella cheese, then half of parmesan cheese. Arrange half of cabbage mixture over each. Dot each with half of cream cheese. Sprinkle each with half of pine nuts.
    Bake pizzas until crusts are golden and cheese melts, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven. Roll up prosciutto slices into cylinders. Arrange 5 prosciutto cylinders on each pizza. Cut pizza into wedges and serve.
