Preparation:

1: Make the Cookie Crust

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-inch pizza pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
5. Spread the cookie dough evenly onto the prepared pizza pan, leaving a small border around the edge to mimic a pizza crust.
6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let the cookie crust cool completely before adding the toppings.

2: Prepare the Peanut Butter Spread

1. In a medium bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of milk if needed to achieve a spreadable consistency.

3: Assemble the Dessert Pizza

1. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cooled cookie crust, leaving a small border around the edge.
2. Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips, crushed peanuts, and mini Reese’s Pieces or M&Ms over the top.
3. Drizzle melted chocolate or caramel sauce over the toppings for an extra indulgent finish, if desired.

4: Chill and Serve

1. Place the dessert pizza in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to set the toppings.
2. Slice into wedges, like a traditional pizza, and serve. Enjoy this creative and decadent treat!
