70 minIt’s a dessert pizza built on a giant chocolate chip cookie, and it’s exactly as good as it sounds.
Store-bought cookie dough gets rolled into a 13-inch circle on a baking stone and baked until golden and crisp.
Once it cools, a layer of sweetened cream cheese goes down first, then a thick blanket of chocolate instant pudding made with half and half for extra richness.
Chopped nuts on top add crunch, and the whole thing gets sliced into wedges with a pizza cutter.
Five ingredients, minimal effort, maximum applause.
Kitchen Tips
- Let the cookie base cool completely before adding the cream cheese layer. Warm cookie plus cream cheese equals a melted, sliding mess.
- Use half and half for the pudding, not milk. It sets up thicker and tastes richer, which matters when it’s spread on a cookie.
- Flour the dough and the roller generously when rolling. Cookie dough is sticky and will fight you without it.
- Loosen the cookie from the stone with a spatula while it’s still slightly warm. Once it cools and sticks, you’ll need a chisel.
