BROWNIE PIZZA! My kids were so excited to make and eat this, you would have thought it was their birthday!

This is a new spin on dessert pizza. Use Your favorite brownie recipe or make some from a box mix. Either way, this brownie pizza is all about what you like!

Make your brownie pizza in a 12″ silicone pizza pan for easy removal and to get the perfect pizza shape. One brownie recipe will make 2 pizzas. Since these are served in ‘slices’ you will want these to be a bit firmer and solid versus soft and gooey so they don’t fall apart. You might want to bake it a few minutes longer than normal.

You can put whatever you want on top of your brownie pizza! Here is what I added to ours:

• pecans (in the brownie batter, you can’t see them)
• broken pretzels (my kids’ favorite!) find gluten free pretzels here
• marshmallows (next time I will add more… these were my favorite!)
• toasted coconut (looks pretty, but couldn’t really taste it)
• mini M&Ms

I’m thinking this would be the perfect dessert to make after Halloween and top with lots of different kinds of candy! Yum… chopped Snickers and Reese’s Cups!

So like I said in my above list the marshmallows were my favorite topping! I placed them on top of the brownie pizza and then popped it back into the oven for about 5-6 minutes until the marshmallows started to turn golden brown! Tasted just like a perfectly toasted, gooey marshmallow! Next time I will add a lot more!

I also added the coconut at the same time as the marshmallows so it would toast in the oven for a few minutes. It worked perfectly, so I didn’t have to toast my coconut separately. Plus, I already had the oven turned on to bake the brownie pizza. However, next time I’m not sure I’ll add the coconut– I couldn’t really taste it.
