Ingredients
Scale
For the Pizza Crust
- 1 pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)
For the Topping
- 1 ½ cups yellow cake mix
- ½ cup melted butter
- ½ cup milk chocolate chips
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the crust and topping.
- Prepare Crust: Roll out the pizza crust on a pizza pan and poke holes all over with a fork to prevent air bubbles during baking. Bake for 5 minutes to partially cook the crust.
- Mix Cake and Butter: In a bowl, combine the melted butter with yellow cake mix, stirring until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Combine Sugars: In a separate bowl, mix the granulated sugar and brown sugar evenly. This sugar mixture will add a crunchy sweet topping.
- Assemble Pizza: Spread the cake mix and butter mixture evenly over the pre-baked pizza crust, creating a smooth layer.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle the milk chocolate chips evenly over the cake mixture and gently press them into the surface to embed them slightly.
- Top with Sugars: Sprinkle the combined granulated and brown sugar mixture evenly over the pizza topping, avoiding the edges for neatness.
- Bake: Bake the assembled dessert pizza in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the topping turns golden brown and bubbly.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Slice into pieces and serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, substitute milk chocolate chips with dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Ensure the crust is pre-baked to avoid sogginess under the moist cake topping.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent dessert.
- This dessert pizza can be customized with nuts or additional toppings like marshmallows.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
