Set aside.
Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C).
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
Spread the sauce evenly over the dough.
Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.
Remove from oven and garnish with fresh basil.
Slice and serve hot!
