Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Base

  • 1 pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)

Cake Mixture

  • 1 ½ cups yellow cake mix
  • ½ cup melted butter

Toppings

  • ½ cup milk chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s at the perfect temperature for baking the dessert pizza.
  2. Pre-bake Crust: Roll out the pizza crust onto a pizza pan. Use a fork to poke holes evenly across the surface to prevent bubbling. Bake the crust for 5 minutes to firm it up.
  3. Prepare Cake Mixture: In a bowl, combine the melted butter and yellow cake mix together, stirring until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Mix Sugars: In another bowl, combine the granulated sugar and brown sugar, mixing thoroughly to blend the flavors.
  5. Assemble Base Layer: Spread the cake mix and butter mixture evenly over the pre-baked pizza crust to form the dessert base.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle the milk chocolate chips evenly over the cake mixture, gently pressing them slightly into the batter for better adhesion.
  7. Sprinkle Sugars: Carefully sprinkle the sugar mixture over the pizza, avoiding spreading it too close to the edges to prevent burning.
  8. Bake Final Pizza: Place the assembled dessert pizza back into the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are set.

Notes

  • You can use a homemade pizza crust or any store-bought crust of your choice.
  • Make sure to poke the dough with a fork before pre-baking to avoid air bubbles.
  • For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter instead of regular melted butter.
  • Chocolate chips can be substituted with other types of chips like white chocolate or butterscotch for variety.
  • Allow the dessert pizza to cool slightly before slicing to help it set.
