Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs

Add-Ins and Toppings

  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • Valentine’s Day sprinkles (for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking pan to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a separate large bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until the mixture is fluffy and light in color.
  4. Add Vanilla and Eggs: Beat in the vanilla extract, then add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition to ensure a smooth batter.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing gently just until combined to avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly dispersed throughout the batter.
  7. Transfer to Pan: Pour the batter into the greased baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula for uniform baking.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs for a fudgy texture.
  9. Cool and Decorate: Allow the mini pizza to cool completely in the pan before decorating the top with Valentine’s Day sprinkles for a festive touch.
  10. Serve: Cut the baked mini pizza into squares and serve to your guests for a delightful and chocolaty treat.

Notes

  • Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature for easier creaming.
  • Do not overmix the batter once the dry ingredients are added to maintain a tender texture.
  • Check the baking progress around 20 minutes to avoid overbaking and drying out the mini pizzas.
  • Use any themed sprinkles to customize the mini pizza for different occasions.
