Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Preheat the oven
Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
Cook the pasta
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add salt and pasta. Cook until al dente, about 7-8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Cook the bacon
Cook 6 slices of bacon in a skillet until crispy. Remove to paper towels to drain. When cool, crumble into pieces. Reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon fat.
Make the cheese sauce
In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and whisk for 1 minute. Gradually add milk, whisking constantly. Cook until thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and add cheddar cheese. Stir until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Mix the mac and cheese
Add cooked pasta to the cheese sauce. Stir to coat evenly. Set aside.
Prepare the pizza dough
On a floured surface, roll or stretch the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a pizza pan or parchment paper. Brush the dough with reserved bacon fat.
Assemble the pizza
Sprinkle half the mozzarella over the dough. Spread the mac and cheese evenly over the cheese. Sprinkle crumbled bacon over the mac and cheese. Top with remaining mozzarella.
Bake the pizza
Bake for 15-20 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.
Finish and serve
Remove from oven. Let cool for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt if desired. Slice and serve hot.
