This Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Pizza is amazing! The crust is ultra-thick. It’s the thickest, softest, and most peanut buttery cookie crust you can find. It probably qualifies as a bit more than a cookie pizza crust, and maybe these are more like cookie bars, but whatever – I’m going with ‘super thick cookie pizza’. K? That was my original idea, and I’m sticking to it.
I used my easy peanut butter cookies recipe to create the crust for this impeccable cookie pizza and that recipe is turning out to be incredibly versatile.
And here it’s giving us a super thick and chewy peanut butter cookie pizza.
What’s perfect about how this cookie crust bakes is that it makes a nice little well. It puffs at the edges, and is slightly flatter in the center. It provides exactly the right dam for trapping in a pool of melted peanut butter and chocolate ganache to top it with.
I used creamy peanut butter in the crust, but crunchy for the topping. Why? Well, I ran out of creamy peanut butter. It’s a rarity to run out of peanut butter at all in my house, but if I do, it’s usually creamy. I’m definitely more of a crunchy gal myself – at least, when it comes to eating it by the spoonful, and so I never risk running out. I carry way more crunchy PB in this house than creamy.
The crunchy peanut butter worked out nicely though because the peanuts provide some texture and crunch!
Next up is a layer of rich and creamy chocolate ganache. You can make the ganache easily in about one minute’s time in the microwave. It’s incredible combined with the layer of peanut butter!
When you’re sprinkling on the M&Ms and peanut butter chips as the topping, don’t worry too much about precision!
I used about half cup of each, but use as much as you like. I wanted them to cover nearly the whole top of the cookie pizza so that there are M&Ms and peanut butter chips in every bite.
This fantastic Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Pizza recipe is simple to prepare, and is wonderful and decadent treat!
Wow, wow, wow!! I love how THICK this is! Holy moly, I bet it tastes incredible, too!
Yes!! The crust is only peanut butter, sugar, and eggs, so you cannot go wrong. 🙂 🙂 🙂

This looks delicious. I know my granddaughter would love it. She’d be sold as soon as she saw the M&Ms and peanut butter is her absolute favorite. I’ll be making this for her next time I see her. Thanks for sharing at Snickerdoodle Sunday. I’m featuring this at tomorrow’s party.
Awww, I’m sure she’d love it! I hope you try it. Thank you, Beverly!

Such a great combo, chocolate and peanut butter. YUM! Thanks for sharing with our link up at the best of the blogosphere!
Oh my goodness I need this! I can’t eat peanuts…so wondering if I could substitute Sunflower Seed Butter…yum! Stopping by from Bloggers Get Social. 🙂
I’m sure you could! I bet that would taste amazing!
I really want to make this, but it would be a dangerous thing to have in the kitchen, I’m sure – it looks so delicious! 😀
Very dangerous! But worth it!! 🙂
Oh goodness! You are really drawing me in with all of these delicious sweets! You know the way right to my heart!
Yay! So glad!

This looks DELICIOUS! Pinning it and definitely making it-I’m thinking for the next potluck at church 🙂
Awesome idea!
I tend to look at recipes and never try them. But this I am definitely trying. Thanks for sharing! Pinned it so I always have it on hand.
These look so delicious, I could not decide which ones to pin, so I pinned two! 🙂
Thanks for the yummy recipe.
I am making this is my oven right now for my 8 year old bday treats for school… however I must be doing something wrong. The crust is in a 9 inch springform pan but it looks like 2 inches thick and it’s still super gooey… ive already baked it for 45 minutes! What did I miss?:(
Hi Deedee: It WILL be quite thick, even in a 9-inch springform! I think it might be misprinted because it should take more like 45-50 minutes at 325. Possibly close to an hour. You want it to bake slowly because it’s so thick, so that’s why the lower temp. It should not be goopy though… I hope you were able to work it out! I’m so sorry!
