Cookies and cream dessert pizza
I’m so sorry. I started the week so healthily with vegan lentil meatballs and just two days later, before the week’s even over, I’ve ended up at this. This ridiculous, delicious cookies and cream dessert pizza (if ‘dessert pizza’ isn’t one of the best two word phrases in the English language, I don’t know what is). I don’t generally have a sweet tooth and I rarely crave sugar… but when I do make dessert, I go all out. Otherwise what’s the point?
You can make a dessert pizza out of all sorts of things, as long as it vaguely follows the standard base + sauce + toppings formula.
This time, I used a huge chocolate chip cookie as the base. I used shop-bought cookie dough – I always see that stuff in the shops, and never usually have an excuse to buy it, so I couldn’t resist. Feel free to make your own if you prefer!
My ‘sauce’ was actually marshmallow fluff. If you’ve never had this stuff, it’s the most sickly, sticky stuff ever – and it’s amazing. Real marshmallows aren’t usually vegetarian, but marshmallow fluff is, so go crazy. Spread it on thick!
As for the toppings for my dessert pizza, I went for crumbled Oreos and some milk and white chocolate. If you’re not bothered about sticking to the ‘cookies and cream’ theme, you could use whatever biscuits, chocolate bars or sweets you fancy – you could even drizzle something delicious over the top. This really isn’t the time to be modest.
There’s plenty more dessert pizza inspiration over on the Beko website, if you feel like mixing it up a bit. I’m personally drooling over the caramel apple pizza – I enjoy feeling virtuous when there’s fruit in my dessert (never mind all that caramel sauce).
I know a dessert pizza probably isn’t the sort of thing you’d cook for an everyday dinner – this one contains an awful lot of chocolate for a Thursday evening – but I think it would make a great alternative to a birthday cake. To be honest, I can usually take or leave cake (I know, don’t hate me), so I’d be pretty happy with a dessert pizza instead. Especially piled high with Oreos and two kinds of chocolate.

Instructions
