Serves: 10 servings
Ingredients
- 1 box brownie mix
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup assorted fruits (e.g., kiwi, strawberries, blueberries)
- 1 cup whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the brownie mix will bake evenly and thoroughly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, egg, water, and vegetable oil. Stir the mixture until it is well combined and smooth. Make sure there are no dry lumps of brownie mix left.
- Grease a pizza pan or a round baking dish with non-stick spray or a light coating of vegetable oil. This will help prevent the brownie from sticking to the pan.
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly to cover the bottom. Use a spatula to ensure an even layer.
- Bake the brownie in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on it to avoid overbaking.
- Once baked, remove the brownie from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the brownie is cooling, prepare your assorted fruits. Wash and slice the fruits as needed. For example, slice the kiwi and strawberries, and keep the blueberries whole.
- Once the brownie has cooled completely, spread a generous layer of whipped cream over the top of the brownie, creating a creamy base for your fruit toppings.
- Arrange the assorted fruits on top of the whipped cream in a decorative pattern. Feel free to get creative with the arrangement, mixing colors and shapes for visual appeal.
- After decorating with fruits, you can chill the dessert pizza in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to set the whipped cream slightly.
- Slice the fruity brownie dessert pizza into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious and visually stunning dessert!
Tips
- For the most even baking, use a light-colored pizza pan or baking sheet to prevent over-browning.
- Let the brownie base cool completely before adding whipped cream to prevent melting.
- Choose fruits that are ripe but firm to maintain the best texture and visual appeal.
- For an extra touch of elegance, lightly dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
- If you want to make this ahead of time, prepare the brownie base and store it separately from the toppings to maintain the crispness.
- Experiment with different fruit combinations to keep the recipe exciting and seasonal.
- For a gourmet twist, drizzle some melted chocolate or a fruit coulis over the top just before serving.
