At first glance, people might think this colorful pizza is a savory snack. But truth comes in the tasting! Kids get a kick out of the fun candy toppings.Sandy Gibbons, Ocean Park, Washington Ingredients:
1 tube (16-1/2 ounces) refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough, softened |
1-1/2 cups flaked coconut |
1-1/2 teaspoons water |
8 drops yellow food coloring |
1 drop red food coloring |
large green, red and white gumdrops |
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips |
1 cup peanut butter |
small black jelly beans |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Press cookie dough onto a greased 12-in. pizza pan. Bake 15-20 minutes or until deep golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. 2. Place coconut in a resealable plastic bag; add water, and yellow and red food coloring. Seal bag and shake well to tint; set aside. Cut green gumdrops in half. Flatten red and white gumdrops. Using a 1/2-in. round cookie cutter, cut out the center of each white gumdrop. 3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Place peanut butter in another microwave-safe bowl; microwave, uncovered, on high for 1 minute or until slightly softened. Spread chocolate over cookie crust; spread with peanut butter. 4. Sprinkle with cheese (tinted coconut). Top with green peppers, tomatoes and onions (green, red and white gumdrops) and olives (black jelly beans); press down gently. Yield: 8-10 slices. |
