A festive and delicious dessert pizza made with a brownie base, topped with cream cheese frosting, fresh strawberries, and blueberries, perfect for 4th of July celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1–1/3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1–1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1–1/2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
  • 1–1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 10 x 15.5-inch jellyroll pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Place butter and chocolate chips in a medium bowl. Microwave 60-90 seconds until chocolate chips are melted, stirring at 30 second intervals. Allow to cool slightly.
  3. Whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla into melted chocolate mixture until smooth. Fold in flour, cocoa powder, and salt until batter is thick and smooth. Spread batter in an even layer in prepared pan.
  4. Bake brownies at 350F for 15-20 minutes until brownies are set when lightly touched. Allow to cool completely on a wire cooling rack.
  5. For the Cream Cheese Frosting, place cream cheese and butter in a large bowl (or a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment) and use an electric mixer to beat on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until creamy.
  6. Add powdered sugar and vanilla to cream cheese mixture and beat an additional 3-4 minutes until frosting is completely smooth and creamy. Refrigerate frosting until ready to frost pizza.
  7. Use the parchment paper to remove brownies from pan and transfer to a cutting board. Spread frosting in an even layer over cooled brownies and cut brownies into 8 even squares.
  8. Top squares with rows of fresh strawberries and blueberries. Store dessert pizza in a sealed container in refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy!
