What is a dessert pizza?
A dessert pizza is typically a large, round cookie covered in sweetened cream cheese and various toppings.
My cookies and cream version uses Oreos to provide a delicious topping that is perfect for sharing or devouring on your own.
I won’t judge.
Ingredients
You only need a handful of easy to find ingredients to make this tasty treat.
To make it, you’ll need:
- Chocolate chip cookie dough
- Cream cheese
- Butter
- Vanilla extract
- Powdered sugar
- Oreos
- White candy melts or white chocolate chips
How to Make
To make the dessert pizza start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F.
As it heats, prepare your cookie dough by pressing it onto 12” or larger round pizza pan or cookie sheet in the shape of circle.
If you use a larger pan, aim for about a 12” diameter for your dough.
Place the dough into the oven and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes or until slightly golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool.
As it bakes, mix together the cream cheese, butter, vanilla extract and powdered sugar in a medium bowl until combined.
Spread the mixture over the cooled cookie crust.
Sprinkle the top with chopped Oreos until you cover the whole pizza.
Add candy melts to a small piping bag and melt.
Once they are melted, cut the tip off and drizzle over the pizza.
Cut into slices and enjoy!
Storing
You can store the dessert pizza easily.
To do so, either wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or cut into pieces and place in an airtight container.
You can store the dessert pizza for up to about 5 days.
Tips and Tricks
- I love chocolate chip cookie dough, but you could use sugar cookie dough or other premade cookie dough if you prefer. It will change the flavor some, but it should still be delicious.
- You can use your favorite homemade chocolate chip cookie recipe if you prefer instead of store bought dough.
- You can use original, double stuffed, or any Oreo you prefer. If you can’t find Oreos or if you prefer, you can use store brands, but I find these typically don’t have as good a flavor.
- Don’t over bake the dough! It can burn or become very tough easily. It will also firm up after you take it out of the oven.
- Add more toppings if you like. One of the nice things about dessert pizzas is you can add as many toppings as you like, just like a real pizza. Love Snickers? Add chopped up bars. The toppings and combinations are endless.

I took this to our church’s party in the park picnic and everyone thought it was delicious. There wasn’t a crumb left! Unlike Ms. KAREN, the only people running were those running back to get a second piece. It was so easy to make and not overly sweet. Like the recipe says, this is a dessert, not the main course.
