   1       pk           Yeast
   2       ts           Sugar
     1/3   c             -- Water, warm
   4       c            Flour
   3       tb           Butter -- in pieces
   1       t            Salt
   1       c             -- Water, ice, without
                        cubes
   1       lb           Ricotta
     1/2   c            Parmesan
     1/2   lb           Mozzarella, sliced
     1/2   lb           Pepperoni
   2       tb           Butter -- melted
                        Sesame seeds

  Preheat oven to 200 degrees for 15 minutes and turn
  off.  Combine yeast, sugar and warm water in a small
  mixing bowl.  Set aside for 5 minutes until foamy.  In
  the workbowl of a food processor, add flour, butter
  pieces and salt. Process for 20 seconds.  Add ice
  water to yeast.  With the processor running, add
  yeast-water mixture gradually, until all of the
  moisture is absorbed and the dough leaves the side of
  the bowl. Process for an additional 60 seconds.
  Transfer dough from the workbowl to a large greased
  mixing bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel and place in
  warm off oven. Allow to rise until doubled,
  approximately 1 1/2 hours.
  
  Combine the ricotta and Parmesan. Punch down the risen
  dough and transfer to a floured rolling surface. With
  quick, hard strokes, roll dough into a large
  rectangle, approximately 1/2 inch thick.  Layer one-
  half of the mozzarella cheese evenly down the center
  leaving approximately three inches of exposed dough on
  either side.  Top with the ricotta mixture and
  pepperoni, and the remaining mozzarella. Overlap the
  exposed dough over the cheese mixture and pinch well
  on all sides to seal.
  
  Transfer to a large cookie sheet, seam side up.  Cover
  with a kitchen towel and return to the warmed oven.
  Allow to rise until doubled, approximately 45 minutes.
  Brush loaf with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame
  seeds.  Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or
  until loaf is well browned and hollow sounding when
  thumped.
