Instructions
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 12-inch round pizza pan with nonstick cooking spray (the kind with flour is best).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 approx 18 ounce package fudge brownie mix, ½ cup vegetable oil, and ¼ cup water. Stir until mostly combined.
- Add 2 large eggs and stir until the batter is smooth and evenly mixed.
- Pour the batter onto the prepared pizza pan and spread it into an even layer.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownie base cool in the pan for about 1 hour, or until it is completely cool to the touch.
- While the brownie base cools, prepare the frosting: beat together the 18-ounce block (226g) cream cheese (room temperature), 3 cups (339g) powdered sugar, and 1–2 tablespoons milk or cream in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer until smooth and spreadable.
- When the brownie is completely cool, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top, leaving about a ¼-inch border around the edge unfrosted.
- Hull and slice the strawberries. If you washed them, pat them dry with paper towels so they are not too wet. Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the frosting.
- Melt the dark, white, or milk chocolate candy melts in the microwave on 50% power in 30-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until smooth.
- Drizzle the melted candy over the strawberries and frosting (use a spoon, fork, or a piping/zip-top bag with a snipped corner to control the drizzle).
- Allow the chocolate drizzles to set for 15–20 minutes.
- Serve immediately straight from the pan, or refrigerate uncovered for up to 3 hours before serving.
Notes
You can use a different sized pan for this recipe, but if it’s smaller, you will need to reduce the amount of batter, so it doesn’t spill over the edges.
Plan to serve your chocolate brownie pizza within six hours of making it. Store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve it for the best results. This will prevent the fruit from releasing moisture.
You can make this brownie pizza ahead! Bake the brownie and make the frosting but store them separately until you are ready to serve the brownie. Before serving, frost, decorate the top, and slice.
You can also freeze the brownie for later and the frosting, too! Just keep them in separate freezer containers.
Make this brownie pizza recipe the next time you need a fun dessert! It’s so easy and fun to decorate. Oh, and of course it’s delicious!
