Deep Dish and Devil's Food

 Company for dinner. Made deep dish vegetarian mushroom pizza. The dough is great:

DOUGH:  2 cups warm water, 4 1/2 tsp instant yeast, 1/2 cup olive oil, tsp kosher salt,  5 1/2 cups flour.  Mix all at once. Should be very soft. Let rise till doubled. Then punch down. Will rise again very quickly. Divide into two and press into greased pizza pans, or two cookie sheets.  Pile toppings of your liking on top and bake at 450 degrees about 18 minutes. Bakes beautifully.
 Devil's Food Cake: Quick and easy. Take a golden cake mix, throw in about 5 large tablespoons of cocoa , a cup of sour cream, 1/2 cup oil, splash or two of water, 4 eggs. Beat all together, pile batter into a greased bundt pan. Bake about 40  minutes. Let cool, slice as you wish, cover with whip cream and sweetened strawberries, or any other nice fruit.  Very quick. Everyone seems to like it.
