Into 2/3 cup lukewarm water dissolve 3 cups granulated sugar. Add 2/3 cup white Karo syrup. Boil until it cracks in water. Pour over the well-beaten whites of 3 eggs. Add vanilla. Beat until it drops from spoon in lumps.
Dough (makes more than you need)
* 3 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour (I used 3.5 cups)
* 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
* 3/4 teaspoon salt
* 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
* 1 1/4 cups sugar
* 1/4 cup cream cheese
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
* 1 large egg
* 2 tablespoons (1 3/8 ounces) corn syrup.
Streusel (sausage) (makes more than you need)
1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour (2 1/2 ounces)
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar (3 1/2 ounces)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch table salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick), cut into 8 pieces, softened but still cool
Toppings (approximates)
2/3 cup seedless rasberry jelly (to coat pizza)
4 oz white chocolate shreaded
streusel (about a cup)
Directions
For the Streusel
1. Turn oven on the 350F
2. In standing mixer fitted with flat beater, combine flour, sugars, cinnamon, and salt on low speed until well combined and no large brown sugar lumps remain, about 45 seconds. Add butter and mix on low until mixture resembles wet sand and no large butter pieces remain, about 2 1/2 minutes. Transfer streusel to small bowl.
3. Squeeze handful of streusel in hand to form large cohesive clump; break up clump with fingers and sprinkle streusel evenly over parchment. Bake until deep golden brown (15 minutes) Cool on parchment before removing.
For the Pizza Dough
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease two baking sheets, or line with parchment.
1) In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2) In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, and cream cheese until light and fluffy.
3) Beat in the vanilla and almond extracts, the egg and corn syrup; scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
4) Add the flour mixture, and mix at low to medium speed until the mixture is evenly moistened.
5) place the dough in a plastic bag, flatten it into a disk, and chill for 1 hour before rolling it out. I’m not sure how much the recipe makes but the ball I used for the pizza was 1 lb 4 oz. I rolled it to a little thicker than 1/8 inch (with a slightly thicker rim. Bake the cookie for 8-12 minutes, until golden brown at the edges.
Assembly
1. As soon as it comes out, spread jelly on it and put it back in the oven for about 4 minutes.
2. As soon as it comes out spread on the white chocolate and streusel
