Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) or as directed on the pizza dough package.
Prepare the caramelized onions: Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions. In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, sprinkle with sugar, and stir to coat. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes until they are golden brown and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Prepare the cream cheese sauce: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the cream cheese, heavy cream, and garlic powder. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Remove from heat and set aside.
Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spread an even layer of the cream cheese sauce over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce layer.
Add the caramelized onions on top of the mozzarella, spreading them out evenly.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and thyme over the onions.
Season the pizza with salt and black pepper to taste.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Caramelized Onion Pizza with Cream Cheese Sauce!
