Soft Pizza Dough

I make a homemade pizza about once a week, so I'm pretty familiar with this recipe. I use this for any pizza I make, and is good for BBQ, pepperoni, plain, or vegetarian pizza. It's also good for breadsticks if you prefer! I'm a person who hates really tough dough, and this one is perfectly soft.

1 cup warm water
1 pkg active dry yeast (1 TBSP)
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 TBSP oil
2 1/4 cups flour

Dissolve the yeast in the water. Add sugar, salt, and oil. Mix well. Add flour slowly, and knead until it forms a soft dough with no flour-lumps. If making into a pizza, (if you can throw it in the air and make a circle, by all means, do so now) stretch the dough circularly and place upon a well-greased circular pizza pan. (See my other pizza ideas in the Main Dishes section for various toppings.) When ready with toppings, cook at 500' for 10 minutes.

If making breadsticks, take chunks off and shape into about 12 long breadsticks. Brush with butter and sprinkle with salt. Place on a greased cookie sheet and cook at 500' for 12 minutes.
