This Patriotic Ice Cream Cookie Pizza is officially my daughter’s new favorite dessert.  It has all of her favorite things: chocolate cookie, ice cream, and sprinkles, and it’s in the shape of a pizza.  Heaven! If we could find some way to add something salty, she would be the happiest kid in the world.

Dough for the Patriotic Cookie Pizza

To make the yummy chocolate cookie dough for our Patriotic Ice Cream Cookie Pizza, mix together the dry ingredients (including the cocoa powder) and set aside.  Cream together the butter and white and brown sugar.  Mix in the eggs and vanilla.  Finally, add in the dry ingredients 1 cup at a time.

Pour dough out onto the Pan

Pour all of the chocolate cookie dough into a 12″ Pizza Pan.

Use Parchment Paper to press down the dough

Place a piece of parchment paper on top of the dough and press the dough into the pizza pan.

Cookie ready to bake

Once you have the cookie dough evenly pressed into the pan, create a small lip around the edge of the pizza pan.

Cookie out of the oven

Place the Patriotic Ice Cream Cookie Pizza into an oven pre-heated to 350 degrees and bake for 16-18 minutes.  Allow the cookie to completely cool.

Soften ice cream in a mixer

Place 1 gallon of vanilla ice cream in a mixer and briefly mix on a low speed until the ice cream has slightly softened.

Spread ice cream into the cookie

Spoon the softened Vanilla Ice Cream into the cookie shell. Place the Patriotic Ice Cream Cookie Pizza in the freezer so the ice cream can harden back up.  We made our cookie pizza the night before and it was perfect by the next morning.

Candy Mix-ins for our Patriotic Cookie Pizza

Now is the fun part … decide how you want to top your Patriotic Ice Cream Cookie Pizza.  We picked a mix of Red White and Blue sprinkles and Nestle Chocolate Chunk chips.  (We thought it would be fun to have these oversized chocolate pieces on the pizza but you definitely regular Chocolate Chips.)

Chocolate Drizzle for the Patriotic Pizza Cookie

We also wanted a little bit of Chocolate drizzle so we melted 15 Ghirardelli Chocolate Melting Wafers in a plastic bag, cut off a tiny bit of the corner and used that to create the drizzle.
