Ingredients
Scale
Pizza Dough
- 1 pre-made or homemade pizza dough (whole wheat or gluten-free options preferred)
Chocolate Fudge Sauce
- 1 cup chocolate fudge sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Toppings
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- ½ cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark chocolate)
- ½ cup crushed graham crackers
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out your pre-made or homemade pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness, aiming for about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake the Crust: Bake the dough for 8-10 minutes until it starts to set but is not fully cooked, ensuring a sturdy base that won’t get soggy from the fudge sauce later.
- Apply Chocolate Fudge Sauce: Remove the partially baked crust from the oven and evenly spread 1 cup of chocolate fudge sauce over the surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle 1 cup of mini marshmallows and ½ cup of chocolate chips evenly over the fudge sauce. Then sprinkle ½ cup of crushed graham crackers on top to add a crunchy texture reminiscent of s’mores.
- Bake Until Toasted: Return the pizza to the oven and bake an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and melted, and the chocolate chips are soft.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the dessert pizza to cool for 5 minutes before optionally dusting with powdered sugar. Slice into wedges and serve warm for the best gooey texture and flavors.
Notes
- You can make your own chocolate fudge sauce using cocoa powder, butter, sugar, and cream if preferred.
- Use gluten-free pizza dough to make this dessert gluten-free.
- For a vegan version, substitute marshmallows and chocolate chips with vegan alternatives.
- Be careful not to overbake the pizza as marshmallows can burn quickly.
- Serve immediately for best texture since the crust may become soggy if stored too long.
