Chocolate and cherries find their way on to a dessert pizza-- inspired by the German cake of the same name. The cherry compote or pizza "sauce" can be used as a topping for vanilla or chocolate ice cream too.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups frozen pitted cherries
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
8 ounces frozen pizza dough, thawed
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup heavy cream
Grated semi-sweet chocolate for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Combine 1/4 cup sugar and the cherries in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until thick and syrupy, 15 to 18 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and almond extract.
  • Stretch and pat the dough into a 10- to 11-inch round and put on a baking sheet. Brush with the butter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the remaining sugar. Bake until golden brown all over, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Spread the cherry compote on the pizza crust and sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top. Return to the oven to lightly melt the chocolate, about 1 minute. Whip the cream with the remaining tablespoon sugar until the cream is thick but does not hold a peak. Drizzle the sweetened cream over the pizza and sprinkle with grated chocolate if using. Cut into wedges and serve warm.
