Preheat pizza stone in 500 degree oven for at least 30 minutes - longer if you have time; roll out pizza dough at thin as you'd like on a pizza peel sprinkled with enough flour or corn meal to allow the pizza to slide; top with sauce and then pineapple slices; pinch pea-sized bits of the cream cheese, and dot over top of pizza; sprinkle with mozzarella, and parmesan cheeses; finally, top with pancetta and black pepper; slide onto the pizza stone in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes - until cheese is bubbling and starting to brown.
Ask a question about this stepWhile the pizza is in the oven, blend basil, olive oil, and salt in a blender until liquified; drizzle over top of the pizza straight from the oven (you may have more basil oil than you need)
