Directions
-
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in the warm milk and warm water.
-
Add the softened butter, sugar, dried parsley flakes, salt, garlic powder, egg, and 1 1/2 cups of the flour to the yeast mixture.
-
Blend the mixture for 30 seconds on low speed, scraping the bowl constantly, then beat for 3 minutes on high speed, scraping the bowl occasionally.
-
Stir in the remaining 1 1/4 cups of flour and the shredded Cheddar cheese until the dough is smooth.
-
Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 40 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to 350F (177C).
-
Spread the risen dough into a well-greased 12-inch pizza pan or 13x9-inch baking pan.
-
Arrange the SPAM strips on top of the dough, pressing them down slightly.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the SPAM is golden brown and the edges of the dough are set.

Sprinkle the Mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses evenly over the SPAM.
-
Return to the oven and bake for 5 more minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
