Description

This Easy Brownie Pizza is a fun and delicious twist on traditional desserts, featuring a fudgy brownie base topped with creamy cream cheese frosting, fresh strawberries, and drizzled with melted chocolate. Perfect for parties or family gatherings, it’s quick to prepare and customizable with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

Brownie Crust

  • 1 approx 18 ounce package fudge brownie mix
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ cup vegetable oil

Frosting

  • 1 8-ounce block (226g) cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3 cups (339g) powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk or cream

Toppings

  • Strawberries
  • Dark, white, or milk chocolate candy melts

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 12-inch round pizza pan with nonstick cooking spray, preferably one that contains flour for best results.
  2. Mix Brownie Batter: In a large bowl, combine the fudge brownie mix, vegetable oil, and water. Stir in the eggs until the mixture is evenly combined and smooth.
  3. Bake Brownie Crust: Pour the batter onto the greased pizza pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Cool Brownie Base: Allow the brownie crust to cool in the pan for about one hour before frosting. This helps the surface set and prevents melting the frosting.
  5. Prepare Frosting: While the brownie cools, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk using a stand mixer or hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
  6. Frost Brownie: Spread the cream cheese frosting over the cooled brownie surface, leaving about ¼ inch of the edge unfrosted for a neat border.
  7. Prepare Toppings: Hull and slice the strawberries, patting them dry to remove any excess moisture to avoid sogginess.
  8. Arrange Strawberries: Evenly distribute the sliced strawberries over the frosted brownie base.
  9. Melt Chocolate Drizzle: Melt the chocolate candy melts in the microwave at 50% power for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between until smooth.
  10. Drizzle Chocolate: Drizzle the melted chocolate over the strawberry-topped brownie pizza using a spoon or piping method for a decorative effect.
  11. Set Toppings: Allow 15-20 minutes for the chocolate drizzle to harden before serving.
  12. Serve or Store: Serve immediately from the pan or refrigerate uncovered for up to 3 hours before serving. For best taste, consume within six hours of preparation.

Notes

  • You can use a different sized pan, but if smaller, reduce the batter quantity to prevent overflow.
  • Best served within six hours and store refrigerated to prevent fruit moisture from affecting the crust.
  • The brownie and frosting can be made ahead and stored separately, then assembled when ready to serve.
  • Both the brownie and frosting can be frozen separately in airtight containers for later use.
  • This recipe is a fun and easy dessert option, perfect for customization with various toppings.
