Ingredients
- 1 pre-made pizza crust
- 1 cup chocolate truffle spread
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1/2 cup whipped cream
- Chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Ensure the oven rack is positioned in the center for even baking.
- Remove the pre-made pizza crust from its packaging and place it on a clean baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, spread the chocolate truffle spread evenly across the entire surface of the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Wash and pat dry the fresh strawberries, then slice them into thin, uniform pieces using a sharp knife.
- Arrange the sliced strawberries in an artistic pattern over the chocolate truffle spread, covering the surface but leaving some chocolate visible.
- Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust edges turn golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes to allow the chocolate to set slightly.
- Using a piping bag or spoon, add dollops of whipped cream around the pizza's edges or in the center.
- Sprinkle chocolate shavings over the top of the pizza for an elegant finishing touch.
- Slice the pizza into 8 equal wedges and serve immediately while still warm.
Tips
- Quality Ingredients Matter: Choose high-quality chocolate truffle spread and fresh strawberries for the best flavor. The richer the chocolate, the more indulgent your pizza will be!
- Creative Arrangements: When placing the strawberries, feel free to get creative! Arrange them in a spiral or a fun pattern to make your pizza visually stunning.
- Don’t Overbake: Keep a close eye on the pizza while it’s baking. You want the crust to be golden brown but not overly crispy, as it should complement the soft chocolate and strawberries.
- Serve Warm: For the best experience, serve the pizza warm right out of the oven. The combination of warm chocolate and fresh strawberries is absolutely irresistible!
- Add a Twist: Feel free to experiment with additional toppings like nuts, drizzles of caramel, or a sprinkle of sea salt for a gourmet touch.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare the pizza crust and chocolate spread in advance. Just assemble and bake when you’re ready to serve for a quick and easy dessert!
