Equipment
- 1 9-inch round cake pan greased and floured
- 1 electric mixer
- 1 Mixing Bowl large
Ingredients
Brownie Crust
- 1 cup unsalted butter melted
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
Toppings
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts
- 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract. In another bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the crust to cool completely on a wire rack.
- Once the crust has cooled, sprinkle chocolate chips, chopped nuts, and mini marshmallows evenly over the top.
- Warm the chocolate syrup slightly and drizzle it over the toppings using a spoon or piping bag for even coverage.
Serving
- Return the pizza to the oven for 5 minutes to set the toppings. Remove and let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
- Pair each slice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or fresh fruit for added flavor contrast.
Storage
- Store any leftover slices in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week.
Notes
Pro Tips: Use high-quality cocoa powder for a richer chocolate flavor. Ensure butter is melted and slightly cooled before adding to the mix. For a smooth chocolate drizzle, warm the syrup slightly. Allow the crust to cool completely before adding toppings.
Ingredient Substitutions: Substitute nuts with dried fruits or omit entirely for nut-free. Use dark chocolate chips for a less sweet option.
How to Serve: Best served warm or at room temperature. Pairs well with ice cream or fresh fruit.
