Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a small bowl, combine yeast and warm milk. Stir to dissolve yeast, then let sit for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. Add melted butter, beaten egg, and yeast mixture. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
3
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10-15 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
4
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Punch down the dough and roll out into a rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick.
5
Spread the sautéed mushrooms and shredded cheese over the center of the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Fold the edges up over the filling to form a crust.
6
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
