Step 1: Prepare the dough
Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Add flour, salt, and olive oil, then mix until a soft dough forms. Knead for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
(Shortcut: Use pre-made pizza dough for convenience.)

Step 2: Preheat the oven
Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it inside while preheating for a crispier crust.

Step 3: Make the creamy cheese sauce
Blend cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt until smooth. This will be your rich, creamy pizza base.

Step 4: Shape the dough
Punch down risen dough and roll into a 12-inch circle or rectangle. Transfer to a parchment-lined sheet or preheated pizza stone. Brush edges with olive oil.

Step 5: Assemble the pizza
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust, leaving a 1-inch border. Add half of the mozzarella, then layer sliced jalapeños, bacon, and red onions. Top with remaining mozzarella and cheddar.

Step 6: Bake
Bake for 12–15 minutes or until crust is golden and cheese bubbly. For extra browning, broil for 1–2 minutes while keeping a close eye.

Step 7: Garnish and serve
Cool slightly, then top with fresh cilantro or parsley. Drizzle with ranch or hot honey for an extra burst of flavor. Slice and enjoy hot!
