Waking up to the question "Is it pizza night yet?" is a daily occurrence in our house, but this Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza is the surprise twist that makes Max’s eyes go wide. We love how this dessert mimics the fun of a pizza party but with deep, chocolatey layers instead of marinara. It is our favorite family habit for celebrating Friday nights, turning a standard pan of brownies into a sliceable, handheld masterpiece that is perfect for sharing.

Why You Will Love This Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza
This dessert offers a perfect balance of dense, chewy chocolate and cool, creamy topping; providing a satisfying texture contrast that is both visually stunning and incredibly indulgent. It is an effortless way to dress up a standard brownie mix or homemade batter, working as a showstopper for birthdays, game nights, or any event that calls for Decadent Desserts.
How To Make Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza
The Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza is a fun, "dessert pizza" twist on the classic brownie; featuring a round, fudgy base topped with a sweetened cream cheese "sauce" and loaded with cookies. This specific version uses a 9-inch round cake pan to achieve that authentic pizza shape, topped with piped whipped cream and whole Oreos to match the bakery-style look in the photos. Originally inspired by the concept of Cookie Cake, this recipe has been refined in our kitchen to ensure the base is sturdy enough to hold the heavy toppings without crumbling.
Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza Ingredients
The Brownie Base
- ½ cup Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- ⅓ cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup All-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- ½ cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips (folded in)
The "Pizza" Toppings
- 8 oz Cream cheese (softened)
- ¼ cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- ½ cup Heavy cream (whipped to stiff peaks for dollops)
- 8-10 Whole Oreo cookies
- ¼ cup Chocolate ganache or syrup (for drizzle)
- 2 tablespoons Crushed graham crackers or nuts (for the golden garnish seen in the image)
Step by Step Method
Bake the crust
- Mix the melted butter, sugar, and cocoa powder, then beat in the eggs and flour to form a thick batter.
- Spread the batter into a greased 9-inch round cake pan or tart pan and bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes.
- Cool completely in the pan before removing; this is crucial so the "pizza" doesn't crack when moved.
Prepare the white sauce
- Beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and spreadable.
- Spread this mixture over the cooled brownie base, leaving a small border at the edge to look like a pizza crust.
Decorate the slice
- Pipe large dollops of whipped cream around the outer edge of the pizza.
- Press a whole Oreo into each whipped cream dollop, standing them up slightly or laying them flat.
Add the finishing touches
- Drizzle chocolate ganache generously over the entire pizza in a zigzag pattern.
- Scatter crushed cookies and the golden graham cracker crumbs over the center for texture.
Slice and serve
- Cut into 8 wedges using a sharp knife, wiping the blade between cuts to keep the white cream layer looking sharp.
MAX’S REACTION
"Mom, it’s a pizza made of cookies! I want the slice with the biggest Oreo on top!"
What Pairs Well With Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza
I usually serve this rich, chocolatey slice with a cold glass of milk to wash down the fudge. If you are creating a full dessert buffet, it pairs beautifully with the fruity tartness of Berry Chocolate Lava Bites. For a cheesecake lover's dream, try serving it alongside Reese’s Cheesecake Cookie Delight. If you want to double down on the brownie theme, our Cheesecake Brownies are always a hit.
Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza Variations
Oreo Brownies Recipe Easy (Box Mix Hack)
Use a standard box of fudge brownie mix, bake it in a round pan, and top with store-bought vanilla frosting and crushed cookies for a 5-minute prep version.
Peanut Butter Brownie Pizza
Swirl creamy peanut butter into the cream cheese topping and use peanut butter cups instead of Oreos for a nutty twist.
Mint Chocolate Brownie Pizza
Add a drop of peppermint extract to the white topping and tint it green, then top with mint Oreos and chocolate shavings.
Brownie Cookie Cake Fusion
Press cookie dough into the pan first, then pour the brownie batter on top before baking to create a "Brookie" pizza base.
Equipment
- 9-inch Round Cake Pan (or Springform pan)
- Electric Mixer
- Piping Bag with Star Tip (for the rosettes)
Mom Tip: To get the slice out perfectly like in the picture, line the bottom of your round pan with parchment paper. This ensures the sticky fudge center doesn't cling to the metal!
Storage / Make Ahead / Serving Tips
Storage Tips That Keep It Fresh
- Store leftover slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- The cream cheese topping softens at room temperature, so keep it chilled until serving.
Make Ahead Strategy
- You can bake the brownie base a day ahead and wrap it in plastic.
- Add the toppings just before the party to keep the Oreos crunchy.
Reheating Instructions
- This is best served cold or at room temperature! Heating it will melt the cream cheese and whipped cream topping.
Top Tips for Best Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza
The absolute secret to that professional look is the piping. Instead of just spreading whipped cream, use a star tip to pipe distinct rosettes where you plan to place each Oreo. This acts as a "glue" for the cookie and makes each slice look like a separate pastry. Also, don't skimp on the cooling time—if the brownie is even slightly warm, the cream cheese layer will slide right off!
Oreo Fudge Brownie Pizza FAQs
Can I use a pizza pan?
Yes, but since brownie batter is liquid, make sure the pan has a rim (at least 1 inch high) so it doesn't spill over in the oven.
How do I cut clean slices?
Dip your knife in hot water and wipe it dry before each cut. This melts through the chocolate chips and cream cheese without dragging them.
Can I use whipped topping instead of cream cheese?
You can, but the cream cheese mixture provides a tangy contrast that cuts the sweetness of the brownie, similar to a cheesecake.
