Author: 
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: Depends how hungry you are!
 
Ingredients
For the Cookie Portion;
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1¼ cup flour
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla salt
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
For the Ganache Portion:
  • ¾ cup Nutella
  • ½ cup heavy cream
For the Topping:
  • ½ cup Skor toffee bits
Instructions
For the Cookie Portion:
  1. In your stand mixer combine butter and both sugars, mix until blended well.
  2. Add your egg and mix.
  3. Add your whole milk and mix.
  4. Now add your flour, vanilla salt and baking soda and mix on low until combined.
  5. Now add vanilla and chocolate chips and mix by hand.
  6. Spread on a parchment lined round pizza pan.
  7. It is helpful to start in middle and push outwards. Smooth as best you can.
  8. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool.
For the Ganache Portion:
  1. Scoop Nutella into a medium sized bowl.
  2. In a small saucepan warm your milk until it just starts to boil.
  3. Pour it over the nutella and whisk until smooth.
Putting it all together:
  1. Once your cookie pizza is cool you may start your ganache.
  2. Once your ganache is ready (instructions above) you can pour that onto the cookie pizza. It is best to start pouring it right in the middle of the pizza and let it work it’s way outwards. You can smooth it with the back of a spoon to help the process.
  3. Let this cool slightly.
  4. Now sprinkle Skor toffee bits over top.
  5. Cut with a pizza cutter.
  6. Serve with a smile.
Notes
Tips and Hints: Spraying utensils with pam spray helps smooth out the cookie and the nutella easier. Lining the pizza pan with parchment is really helpful. You can refrigerate this to help harden up the ganache a bit if you like.
