Love pizza as much as dessert? Combine the two, and enjoy a cookie pizza topped with chocolate, pecans and candy.

Ingredient List

  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 bag (6 oz) semisweet chocolate chips (1 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup pecan halves
  • 1/2 cup M&M's® chocolate candies
  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut, toasted, if desired
  • 2 oz white chocolate baking bars (from 6-oz package), melted

Preparation

  1. Heat oven to 350° F. In large bowl, mix 1/2 cup butter, the brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla and egg until well blended. Stir in flour and baking soda (dough will be stiff).
  2. Pat dough in ungreased 12-inch pizza pan or into 12-inch round on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool about 30 minutes.
  3. In 2-quart saucepan, heat chocolate chips, 2 tablespoons butter and milk over low heat, stirring occasionally, just until chocolate is melted; remove from heat. Stir in powdered sugar. Beat with wire whisk until smooth, glossy and spreadable. (If not glossy, stir in a few drops hot water).
  4. Spread chocolate mixture over baked layer. Immediately sprinkle with pecans, candies and coconut; press lightly. Drizzle with melted baking bars. Let stand until set. Remove from pan if desired. Cut into wedges.

Tips

  • Freeze the unfrosted cookie in a tightly covered container for up to 2 months. Just before you want to enjoy your cookie pizza, thaw, frost and decorate.
  • Looking for an even easier way to make this cookie pizza? Mix a 19.8-ounce box of Betty Crocker® fudge brownie mix as directed on the box; spread batter in greased pizza pan. Bake at 350ºF about 30 minutes or until center is set; cool. Spread with a container of Betty Crocker® Whipped chocolate ready-to-spread frosting instead of the chocolate mixture.
