Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 box brownie mix
- 2 eggs (from box mix)
- 120 milliliters (½ cup) vegetable oil
- 60 milliliters (¼ cup) water
Peanut Butter and Chocolate Toppings:
- 120 milliliters (½ cup) creamy peanut butter
- 120 milliliters (½ cup) chocolate chips
Garnish Ingredients:
- 60 milliliters (¼ cup) chopped peanuts
- 60 milliliters (¼ cup) mini Reeses Pieces
- 60 milliliters (¼ cup) mini marshmallows or chocolate chips or sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the baking surface by coating a 12-inch pizza pan with grease or parchment paper, then set the oven temperature to 350F (175C).
- Create the brownie foundation by mixing brownie mix with vegetable oil, eggs, and water in a large mixing bowl. Gently incorporate mini chocolate chips into the batter, ensuring even distribution. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, spreading it uniformly across the surface.
- Bake the brownie base for approximately 18-22 minutes, monitoring until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean. Allow the brownie to cool slightly after removing from the oven.
- Craft the peanut butter layer by whipping together peanut butter, powdered sugar, softened butter, and vanilla extract until achieving a silky, uniform consistency.
- Delicately spread the peanut butter mixture across the cooled brownie surface, taking care not to disrupt the underlying brownie layer.
- Embellish the creation by scattering mini chocolate chips and chopped peanuts over the peanut butter layer. Optional: Enhance with a chocolate syrup drizzle or a light sprinkle of sea salt for a complex flavor profile.
- Slice the dessert pizza into wedges, presenting it as a decadent treat to be shared and savored by friends and family.
Notes
- Use high-quality brownie mix for richer flavor and more consistent texture across the pizza base.
- Let brownie cool completely before adding peanut butter layer to prevent melting and maintain clean layer separation.
- Softened butter ensures smoother peanut butter mixture without lumps, creating a silky spread.
- Consider using natural peanut butter for deeper, less sweet taste if preferred over processed versions.
