Here is what you will need to serve 8.
(For a printer friendly version, see the recipe card at the end of this post)
Ingredients
For the cookie
- 80g Unsalted Butter, Room Temp
- 140g Soft Light Brown Sugar
- 1 Egg Yolk, Room Temp
- 1 tsp Vanilla
- 125g Plain Flour
- 1/4 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 150g Milk Chocolate Chips
For the ganache
- 150g Milk Chocolate, Finely Chopped
- 60g Double Cream
For the decoration
- 1 x 89g Bag of Cadbury’s Mini Creme Eggs
- 1 x 90g Bag of Cadbury’s Mini Eggs
- Mini Wafer Flowers (Optional)
Essential equipment
- 25cm Round Pizza Tin/Baking Tray
Cookie instructions
Lightly grease and line the base of your baking tin and preheat your oven to 180°C/Fan 170°C.
In an electric stand mixer or a large bowl with an electric hand whisk, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Next, add in the egg yolk and vanilla and beat again until smooth.
Then sift in the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt and beat briefly until it comes together to form a dough.
Finally throw in the chocolate chips and mix again very briefly just to evenly distribute them.
Now tip the dough out onto your prepared pizza tray and press it in until it covers the whole tray evenly.
Pop your giant Easter Chocolate Cookie Pizza in the preheated oven to bake for 12-15 minutes until golden on top.
Allow to cool completely before moving onto the next step.
Ganache instructions
If you haven’t already, finely chop the chocolate and place into a large bowl. Then gently heat the cream in a saucepan over a low heat until it just comes to the boil.
Pour the hot cream all over the chocolate and leave to sit for 5 minutes.
When the time is up, stir well until it’s a lovely smooth and shiny ganache. It should be quite thick.
If there are still a few lumps, don’t worry. Just pop it into the microwave for 10 seconds and stir again. That should do the trick!
Pour the ganache over your cooled pizza and spread almost right to the edges.
Allow to sit for 5 minutes to firm up a little then very gently mark the top with a knife, where you will be slicing. (Just so you know where to stick the toppings.)
Decoration instructions
You can go about this however you like. I like to half & quarter some of my Creme Eggs so they go a little further plus they look more tempting!
I opted to have alternate slices of Mini Eggs & Creme Eggs but you could mix them up if you want to. Firmly press each chocolate/flower into the ganache then allow to set completely for at least an hour. You can pop it in the fridge to speed up the process if you like.
When set, cut into 8 large slices. Store in an airtight container (I prefer metal) at room temperature and consume within 3-4 days.
I can’t think of anything I actually want more at Easter than this beautiful (in every way) Easter Chocolate Cookie Pizza. It literally has it all! Crunchy crumbly cookie loaded with chocolate chips, gooey Cadbury’s Creme Eggs, colourful chocolate Mini Eggs and pretty flowers to top it all off. You know you need to try this one!!

Hi Roseanne. I only started adding recipe cards a few years ago. This recipe is much older and I haven’t had chance to update it yet. There is still a step by step picture recipe, which is really easy to use :) Emma x
