One Methods:Candy Pizza Frosting

Candied pizza is a fun inclusion to the holiday season food treats and it's an ideal treat for such occasions as backyard camping, movie nights, football game watching, sleepovers and much more. Easy to make (although not so easy to stop yourself from munching the topping as you make it), this is a treat sure to please everyone.

    Prepare the cookie dough as directed by the package or recipe. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough. Make it nice and flat, however, avoid making it too flat or the pizza won't turn out well.
    • If you want to change the texture of the candy pizza base, add stir-ins and mix through well before rolling out. Stir-ins can include chopped marshmallow, chopped nuts, crushed cereal, crushed pretzel sticks, etc.

    Heat the chocolate fudge over the double boiler. When you think it has melted enough to be spread easily, take it off the stove. Scoop the fudge into a bowl. Spread out the chocolate fudge in the same manner as spreading out pizza sauce, using a soup spoon or knife.

    Put the pizza in the oven once you are ready. Every five minutes, check up to see how the candied pizza is doing. When it looks ready, take the pizza out, and let it cool for a few minutes. When you're ready, proceed to the next step.

Tips
Provide Details.
Please be as detailed as possible in your explanation. Don't worry about formatting! We'll take care of it. For example:
Don't say: Eat more fats.
Do say: Add fats with some nutritional value to the foods you already eat. Try olive oil, butter, avocado, and mayonnaise.

EditTips

  • Besides cookie dough, it is possible to make a range of chocolate candy pizza bases which can allow you to use your favorite chocolate style.
  • Use white chocolate for the sauce and dye it red with food coloring for the ultimate pizza sauce effect.
  • Use dark chocolate doughnut shaped chocolate bits to mimic slices of olives. Use chocolate Hershey Kisses to do this. Melt them in a microwaveable container, remove from the heat and shape them on a piece of wax paper. Allow to set before adding to the candy pizza.
  • Use little red fruit discs to mimic pepperonis.
  • Coat the pizza base in sugar for added, heavy sweetness.

EditWarnings

  • Use oven mitts to handle hot containers and trays.
  • Don't go overboard with the candy toppings, or you might get sick.

EditThings You'll Need

  • Rolling pin
  • Double boiler (bain marie)
  • Pizza tray
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Microwave safe plate
  • Soup spoon or knife for spreading
  • Microwave safe measuring cup (for frosting, optional)
