Cheese Pizza with Filling Layer

Inspired by Megrelian khachapuri, I decided to add a cheese layer to the dough. :) The result turned out original and very tasty. You can vary the filling by adding seafood, vegetables or mushrooms. This amount of ingredients is enough for one pizza 30 cm in diameter.
