Cookies and Berries Pizza

When you think of pizza, I’m sure you never think ‘cookies and berries pizza would be good about now’. Well, you should! In our house, every pizza night ends with dessert pizza. While some people refuse to try or make a dessert pizza, we embrace it. I prefer pizza that is not too sweet while he prefers his dessert pizzas as sweet as they can get. We compromise by creating half pies and using what we have on hand.

Nutella pizza is great and all but cookies and berries pizza is something else! If you’ve never had berries with your warm, fresh out-of-the-oven cookies, you’re missing out! Now add pizza crust to the mix and a cold glass of your favorite milk and bam! Bedtime couldn’t be any sweeter after that.

Nutella and berries pizza taste great but it can be overly too sweet for me. I want to enjoy my dessert and eat as much of it as I can. If it’s too sweet, the dessert is ruined for me. My favorite dessert that the pizza chef in this house makes are Oreo and berries balls. He uses pizza dough to wrap the Oreos and berries in, then bakes them. Anyway, if you love chocolate chip cookies and berries, you need to make yourself this berries and cookies pizza!

Do You Like Dessert Pizza?

Are you a lover of all things pizza, including dessert pizza? The first time we made a sweet pizza, it was coated in Nutella and sprinkled with berries. This is still one of my favorite dessert pizzas that we make. Over the years, we have made numerous sweet pies, but there are so many more that we should all try! Since we got the Expert Grill Charcoal Pizza Oven, we’ve been experimenting more and having a lot more pizzas. Our new dessert pizza includes pies with strawberry jam, berries, Nutella, and cookie dough with fresh blackberries and frozen fruit.

Some people do not consider dessert pizza an authentic pizza and might even think that it’s a disgrace. Well, if it’s round, there is a dough base, a sweet center, and toppings. I’ll call it pizza all day. When it comes to sweet pizza, you can use raw dough for your crust or ready-made crusts like flatbread. I prefer fresh dough, but I’ve used flatbread and pita bread as alternatives.

If you want to get your juices floating and start making sweet pies, the below list might help to inspire you. Some new dessert pies you should try include:

  • Sweet cream cheese and berries pie
  • Nutella pie with different toppings (ex: fruit, nuts, candy, sprinkles, mini marshmallows)
  • Whipped cream and fruit, nuts, or drizzled chocolate
  • S’mores pie
  • Cherry pie pizza
  • Cinnamon pizza
  • Brownie pie with whipped cream and fruit
  • Banana, brown sugar, and white chocolate pizza pie

These are just a few different sweet pizza options you should try. I think my next pie will include apples, cinnamon, and brown sugar.

Dessert Pizza Crust Options

While I love using pizza dough for the crust part, there are other options you can choose. Some different crusts can be:

  • Cookie dough cooked in a round pan
  • Brownie mixture used as the crust
  • Floured tortilla
  • Flatbread
  • Pita bread
  • Sugar cookie crust
