Now, I have been wanting to make this dessert pizza for a long time now but my conscience always kicks in and says to me, “You don’t need chocolate pizza. Be a good girl now and just have a glass of water.”
Well, this week I told my conscience to “shut-up” and I made me a chocolate pizza!
My conscience can suck it because this pizza is awesome and totally worth the splurge. Pizza crust topped with chocolate pudding topped with crumb topping, warm and gooey right out of the oven. Doesn’t get much better than that. If you think you might have seen this somewhere else, you are probably right. It is a copycat recipe of CiCi’s chocolate pizza. I used to love going to CiCi’s after high school football games on Friday nights with all my friends. All you can eat for only $2.99! I felt sorry for the people that worked at that CiCi’s because they had to just cringe when they saw us coming. Big, hungry football players + all their peeps = A LOT OF PIZZA, A LOT OF NOISE, and A LOT OF CLEANUP. Awww, those were the days….
Happy Pizza Friday Y’all!

This sounds so YUMMY…..I think this would be a great with shredded coconut, and with a handful of caramel bits that look like chocolate chips, but they’re caramel. And how about some chopped peanuts too!
Mmmmmm… sounds good! It reminds me of when our family went to Rio. The restaurant in the hotel was all you can eat of various types of really awesome pizza. At the end, they would bring out the dessert pizzas. They had all sorts of them… bananas and caramel, chocolate and marshmallows… It would be a fun idea for a party!
