INGREDIENTS- Assorted chocolate candy: 1 cup (think M&Ms, Maltesers, caramel bites), for tossing on top
- Heavy cream: 1/4 cup, for making silky ganache
- Dark chocolate: 2/3 cup, get ready for ganache goodness
- Vegetable oil: 1 tablespoon, keeps things moist
- Milk: 1 tablespoon, brings the batter together
- Plain flour: 1/2 cup, holds the base steady
- Cocoa powder: 1/4 cup, brings that classic chocolate punch
- Unsalted butter, melted and cooled: 1/4 cup, for a rich bite
- Vanilla extract: 1/2 teaspoon, gives a sweet aroma
- Caster sugar: 3/4 cup, sweetens up everything
- Egg white: 1, helps mix and hold it all
- Step 9:
- Wait around 10-15 minutes for your pizza to set up, slice it, and dig in.
- Step 8:
- Go ahead and press your candies (those M&Ms, Maltesers, caramel pieces—whatever you love) into the ganache.
- Step 7:
- Take your chilled ganache and spread it generously on top of the brownie base.
- Step 6:
- Mix the dark chocolate and heavy cream in a microwave-friendly bowl. Warm it in quick bursts, stirring each time, until super creamy. Pop it in the fridge for 15 minutes until it's thick but spreadable.
- Step 5:
- Pop it in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes. When done, let the brownie cool all the way.
- Step 4:
- Scoop the brownie mix onto your lined tray and spread it into a big circle.
- Step 3:
- Next, dump in the flour and cocoa powder a little at a time, stirring well. Pour in milk and oil to make the batter smooth.
- Step 2:
- In a big bowl, whisk the egg white and sugar until they're totally blended. Mix in vanilla and melted butter.
- Step 1:
- Fire up your oven at 350°F (180°C) and cover a baking pan with parchment.
- Leftovers? Keep them in a sealed container on the counter for up to 3 days.
- This one's best eaten at room temp or slightly warm so all the chocolate shines.
- Stick the ganache in the fridge for a bit before spreading so it goes on nice and smooth.
- Top it off with whatever you like—chopped nuts, dried fruit, or any candy you want for more crunch and flavor.
Tips from Well-Known Chefs
- Alton Brown swears by using good quality dark chocolate for rich ganache that never gets gritty.
- Ina Garten likes tossing in a pinch of sea salt to the ganache. That way you get a little salty bite with all that sweet stuff.
