Chocolate Hazelnut Pizza Recipes

CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT PIZZA WITH STRAWBERRIES AND BANANAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Roll pizza dough out on a lightly floured surface. Transfer to greased 12-inch (30 cm) round pizza pan. Brush butter over dough. Combine sugar with cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over pizza.
• Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden and puffed. Cool for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pipe enough whipped cream into a measuring cup to measure 2 1/2 cups (625 mL); stir into sour cream until smooth. Stir in vanilla. Spread cream mixture over pizza base and top with bananas and strawberries.
• Warm hazelnut spread in the microwave on High for 30 seconds or until pourable. Drizzle spread over the fruit. Cut into wedges and serve immediately with additional whipped cream (if desired).

CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Grease 12-inch pizza pan with shortening, or spray with cooking spray. Unroll dough in pan. Starting at center, press out dough with hands, forming 1/2-inch rim.
• Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately spread with hazelnut spread; sprinkle with dark chocolate and semisweet chocolate chips. Bake 1 to 2 minutes longer or just until chocolate begins to melt.
• In small microwavable bowl, microwave white vanilla baking chips and vegetable oil uncovered on High 30 to 60 seconds, stirring every 15 seconds, until melted. Sprinkle hazelnuts on pizza. Drizzle with melted white chips. Cool 5 minutes. Cut into wedges. Serve warm.

CHOCOLATE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Line large baking sheet with parchment. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 11-inch round. Transfer dough to prepared sheet. Make indentations all over dough with fingertips. Brush melted butter over. Bake until pale golden, about 20 minutes.
• Smooth chocolate-hazelnut spread over hot crust. Sprinkle chopped bittersweet chocolate and white chocolate over. Bake until chocolate begins to melt, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle chopped hazelnuts over, cut into wedges, and serve.

CHOCOLATE-HAZELNUT FRUIT PIZZA

Steps:

• Spread tortilla with Nutella. Arrange fruits over the top. Cut into 4 wedges. Serve immediately.

BROWNIE PIZZA

Steps:

• For the brownie base: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lightly coat a round 12-inch pizza pan with cooking spray. Top with parchment paper and spray again with cooking spray.
• Add the chocolate hazelnut spread and eggs to a bowl and mix until smooth. Fold in the flour until it is all mixed in. Pour the mixture into the center of the pizza pan and, using a spatula, spread to the edges of the pan in an even layer. (The dough will be quite thick.) Bake until the brownie is cooked through and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the hazelnut ganache: Heat the cream in a pan over a medium heat. Place the chocolate hazelnut spread and chocolate chips in a bowl. Pour the hot cream over and whisk until melted and smooth.
• For the toppings: Put the almond bark in a microwave-proof bowl and microwave in short bursts of 30 seconds, stirring in between, until it is melted.
• Remove the pizza base from the oven and allow to cool completely in the pan. Carefully slide a spatula under the brownie to loosen it from the parchment and slide onto a cake stand or serving platter.
• Pour the ganache over and spread, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Decorate with the candy, then drizzle over the melted almond bark, spooning it back and forth in lines. Scatter over the sprinkles.

GRILLED CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT & BANANA PIZZA

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the warm water, honey and yeast. Allow to sit for 10 minutes to proof the yeast. It should be foamy.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, olive oil and the yeast mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon until the dough begins to come together. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead by hand until a soft smooth dough forms, about 5 to 8 minutes. Form the dough into a ball and place inside a lightly greased large bowl. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and a damp kitchen towel and allow to rest until doubled in size, for 2 hours.
• Once done, gently punch the dough down and then transfer to a lightly floured work surface. Cut into three even pieces and form into balls. Keep them covered with a kitchen towel.
• Working with one at a time, roll out into a rectangle or a circle. Brush the surface evenly with olive oil.
• Preheat a large stovetop grill pan or an outdoor grill over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the pizza dough onto the grill, oil side down. Then brush the top side with oil as well. Cook until the dough begins to puff up slightly and grill marks form, about 5 to 8 minutes. Carefully flip over and continue to grill on the second side for about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet and then continue grilling the rest of the pizza dough.
• Spread the grilled pizza dough with nutella while still warm to melt it slightly. Then top with sliced bananas and chopped hazelnuts. Slice and serve warm.
