How to make Reese’s Chocolate Brownie Pizza

Prep

Get started by preheating the oven to 350°F. Then, spray a 10″ tart pan (or a 9″ cake pan, a pie pan or pizza stone) with cooking spray. Set it aside.

Brownie batter

In a mixing bowl, stir together the brownie mix, eggs, oil and water, as described on the Brownie box. Proceed to pour the combined batter into the prepared baking dish.

Bake

Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, check for doneness by inserting a toothpick that comes out clean. Then remove the brownie and place on cooling rack to cool.

Ganache

While the brownies are cooling, get the chocolate topping started.

In a medium microwave safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted. It should take only a minute or so. Continue to pour over the cooled brownie and spread evenly across the top.

Candy topping

Next, add the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups, Reese’s Pieces candies and Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips over the ganache. Then refrigerate for 1-2 hours, until the Ganache has set. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Slice, serve and enjoy!

Then, broil the pizza in the oven for a few minutes until the marshmallows are toasted and gooey. This variation adds a crunchy texture and a smoky flavor.
• Cookie Dough Brownie Pizza: For those who love cookie dough, try adding it to your brownie pizza. Simply press cookie dough onto the bottom of the pan before adding the brownie batter. Then, bake the pizza as usual. This variation adds a chewy texture and a buttery flavor.

How to Store Reese’s Peanut Butter Brownies

To keep the Reese’s Brownie Pizza fresh and delicious, it is important to store it properly. Here are a few tips to help you store your pizza:

BEST PAN FOR BAKING BROWNIES

I’ve baked a lot of brownies and the pan you use matters! I like to use a heavier, more durable pan made from stainless steel, glass or ceramic. I like to use one that has handles for easy oven transfers. If you opt for non-stick, make sure you use a high quality non-stick like ceramic pans as they hold up better over the years. Heavier pans will bake brownies at a more even temperature, although don’t worry, the sides will still get a bit chewier than the rest! Who else likes brownie corners as much as I do?! (Did you know there’s even a pan for baking ALL corner brownies?!)
