Strawberry Nutella Cookie Pizza
- for the sugar cookie crust
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled, plus more for the work surface
- for the topping
- ½ cup nutella, microwaved for 30 seconds - to make it spread easily
- fresh strawberries
- sliced almonds
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar on medium-high until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Beat in the egg, then the vanilla and salt.
- Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually add the flour, mixing until just combined (do not overmix).
- Press the cookie dough into a round casserole dish - I used a 10 inch but you can use a pie plate too.
- Your dough should be about ½ inch thick. It's a nice heavy base.
- Bake cookie dough for 20 -23 minutes, until lightly browned
- Cool completely
- Spread nutella over cooled crust and top with fresh berries and almonds.
