Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar cookie dough
- 1/2 cup frosting
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate eggs
- 1/4 cup pastel sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roll out the sugar cookie dough on a lightly floured surface into a large circular shape, approximately 12 inches in diameter, resembling a pizza base.
- Transfer the cookie dough circle carefully onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring it maintains its round shape.
- Bake the cookie base for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set but still soft.
- Remove the cookie base from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet for about 15 minutes.
- Once cooled, spread the frosting evenly across the cookie base, leaving a small border around the edge.
- Decoratively arrange the mini chocolate eggs across the frosted surface, creating a colorful pattern.
- Sprinkle pastel sprinkles over the entire cookie to add extra festive decoration.
- Slice the cookie pizza into 12 wedges using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Tips
- Ensure your cookie dough is at the right temperature - too cold and it won't roll smoothly, too warm and it'll spread too much during baking.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and to prevent the cookie from sticking to the baking sheet.
- For a more professional look, use a pizza wheel or sharp knife to create clean, even slices.
- Choose pastel-colored sprinkles and eggs to enhance the Easter theme and make your cookie pizza more visually appealing.
- If you want a more homemade touch, consider making your own sugar cookie dough instead of using pre-made dough.
- Allow the cookie base to cool completely before adding frosting to prevent melting and ensure a neat decoration.
- For extra flavor, consider using flavored frosting like vanilla bean or cream cheese to add more depth to your dessert.
