Chocolate-Dipped Strawberry Pizza
Buy already-made chocolate-dipped fresh strawberries or make your own. Just melt a little dark chocolate with a spoonful of cream, dip washed strawberries in it, and let the strawberries rest on waxed paper until the chocolate becomes firm.
Makes two 12-inch pizzas
INGREDIENTS
- ½ recipe Chocolate Crust dough
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 3 cups Chocolate Ganache
- 3 cups coarsely grated white chocolate
- 24 chocolate-dipped whole strawberries
Roll or press pizza dough into two 12-inch circles, slightly thicker at the edges than in the center. Coat pizza pans with the melted butter and place dough in the pans.
Bake dough at 375° for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Remove crusts from pans and place on serving platters.
Spread 1½ cups Chocolate Ganache evenly over each pizza. Allow pizzas to cool to warm room temperature.
Sprinkle grated chocolate evenly over each pizza, then garnish with chocolate-dipped strawberries and serve immediately.
About Fruit Fondue
Be sure fresh fruit is completely dry and at room temperature before dipping in warm chocolate. Plan to serve chocolate-dipped berries and other fruit the same day you make it — refrigeration will cause condensation to form and mar the finish on the chocolate.
