Sugar Cookie Pizza
Ingredients*
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract,
½ cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 large egg, room temperature
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch salt
6 oz cream cheese, room temperature
⅓ cup powdered sugar
⅓ cup chocolate hazelnut spread
Optional toppings
1 cup fresh berries
peanut butter
mini pretzel
mini marshmallow
graham cracker, chopped
1 cup chocolate chunk
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350˚F . Spray a pizza pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, mix the butter with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
Add the granulated sugar, then the brown sugar, and mix until well incorporated.
Add the egg and stir until thoroughly mixed.
Using a fine mesh sieve, sift the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt into the dough. Combine with a spatula until evenly mixed.
Spread the cookie dough in an even layer in the prepared pan. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes, then bake for 15-18 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and remaining ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract until well incorporated.
Spread half of the frosting onto a quarter of the cooled cookie and the other half on the diagonally opposite corner.
Frost the other quarters with the chocolate hazelnut spread.
Decorate with your favorite toppings.
Enjoy!
*If you don’t wanna make the cookie from scratch, just use packaged sugar cookie dough.
