INGREDIENTS:
For the Brownie Base
- ¾ cup (170 g) butter, softened
- 1 cup (200 g) sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1½ cups (190 g) plain flour
- ¼ cup (25 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
For the Buttercream
- ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 2 cups (250 g) icing sugar, sifted
- 2 tbsp whole milk (plus a splash more if needed)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt (optional — brings out the sweetness)
For the Topping
- Fresh strawberries sliced
- Bananas, sliced
- Red and green grapes, halved
- Any fruit to your fancy really!
METHOD:
1. Prep and bake the brownie base!
- Heat oven to 175 °C (350 °F). Grease or line a 14‑inch pizza pan.
- Cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla.
- In another bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually fold dry mix into wet until combined.
- Spread into the pizza pan, leaving a small gap at the edges.
- Bake 15–20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
2. Make the buttercream
- Beat butter on medium‑high until creamy and slightly paler (about 2 minutes).
- Add sifted icing sugar in two batches, mixing on low to avoid sugar clouds.
- Add vanilla and milk, then beat on high for 2–3 minutes until fluffy and spreadable.
- If too thick, add a tiny splash more milk; if too soft, add a spoonful of icing sugar.
3. Assemble your brownie pizza!
- Spread buttercream over the cooled brownie base - no need for perfection!
- Scatter fruit generously, letting the colours and shapes overlap.
- Slice into wedges and serve immediately for the freshest look or refrigerate if making ahead.
Extra thoughts:
- Use very ripe strawberries and grapes for gloss and flavour; bananas not so much or they'll brown fast!
- Try a pinch of lemon zest in the buttercream for a brightness that pops against the chocolate."
