Yes, it is a chocolate pizza, inspired by the classic pepperoni pizza. The crust is pizza dough, the "sauce" is dark chocolate, the "mozzarella" is white chocolate, and the "pepperoni" is sliced strawberries.
Ingredients
1 LB pizza dough (homemade or purchased) *
1 LB bag dark chocolate (60% cocoa)
1 LB bag white chocolate chips
1 LB carton strawberries
Method
1 LB of pizza dough will make a 12-14 inch pizza, depending on your preferred thickness. Thick dough will make a chewier pizza, while thin will make a more crispy pizza.
I used a cast iron pan to make a 10 inch pizza. I rolled my dough to my desired thickness, then used a 10 inch plate, upside down, as a template to cut a 10 inch pizza. If you use a cast iron pan, oil the pan and heat on the stove, drop the dough in, and it should sizzle. Then put the pan and dough in the oven at 400 degrees until it starts to brown and firm up. If you use a pizza pan or stone, pre-cook the dough until light brown.
Remove from oven. Quickly add your dark chocolate (blitzed in a food processor) and white chocolate chips, and put back into the oven. Cook until crust is done. The chocolate will melt quickly (the white chocolate chips will melt, but will probably maintain their shape). You won't use all of of the chocolate for a 10 inch pizza. I've been snacking on the extra chocolate for days.
When the pizza is cooked, remove it from the oven, and add your thin sliced strawberries, slightly pushing them into the melted chocolate.
Chill in the refrigerator until chocolate is firm. Serve.
