Instructions
Step 1: Make the Brownie Base
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Grease a 12-inch pizza pan or line with parchment paper.
-
In a saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Remove from heat.
-
Stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
-
Add cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix until well combined.
-
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
-
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the center is set.
-
Let cool completely in the pan on a cooling rack.
Step 2: Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting
-
In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and butter until creamy.
-
Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla, beating until fluffy.
-
Chill frosting for 10 minutes to firm it up slightly.
Step 3: Assemble the Pizza
-
Once the brownie base is fully cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top.
-
Arrange sliced fruit in a circular pattern or get creative with your own design.
-
For extra shine, brush fruit lightly with warmed honey or apricot jam.
Step 4: Chill and Serve
-
Refrigerate the assembled pizza for 30 minutes to help set.
-
Slice like a traditional pizza and serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
Cool the Base – Make sure the brownie layer is completely cool before frosting.
Use Fresh, Dry Fruit – Pat fruit dry with a paper towel to avoid a soggy topping.
Get Creative – Use cookie cutters to shape fruit for fun patterns.
Prep Ahead – Bake the brownie a day in advance and store tightly wrapped.
