Friday Fun! (Dessert Pizza)
When I was in middle school, Pizza Hut came out with dessert pizza. I very rarely got to go out for dinner, as my parents didn’t have much money, but my middle school had a merit competition twice a year. The kids who got over a certain number of merits for various things like memorizing Bible verses got to go out to Pizza Hut for the buffet, and let me tell you, the only reason I was memorizing Bible verses was for that dessert pizza. But then suddenly dessert pizza vanished from the menus of pretty much every pizza place. I thought they were gone forever. Oh, I was so wrong.
This week it was my friend’s birthday, and three of us went out to a local bar. My two friends were suddenly like, “Let’s get the dessert pizza.” Wait. What?! It arrived, and you guys, it is an ooey gooey amazingness of awesome. It’s cinnamon, maple syrup, and sugar sauce with slices of apples topped by cream cheese like stuff. The most delicious dessert pizza I’ve ever had. I brought the leftovers home, and after eating them last night, and I promptly decided I needed more, so take-out it was! Not to mention a left-over slice for breakfast. Welcome back to my life, dessert pizza!
I realize my Friday Fun posts have a tendency to be about food, but dammit I love food! Happy weekends, everyone!

Who doesn’t love food? I never used to, but then I learned to cook, and now it’s awesome. I remember dessert pizza – you didn’t miss out on Pizza Hut’s. We rarely went there on our own money but my school had the Book It program, and since I have always read a ton, I had a lot of free pizza. The dessert ones were usually pretty gross. That sounds delicious though! Maybe they’ve improved in the last 12 years.
Oh I *did* get to have the Pizza Hut dessert pizza–just only twice a year in middle school. I liked their dessert pizzas, but they don’t even compare to the bar’s variety I’ve been nomming this week.
Dessert pizza……..they are two words I think most Brits would cringe at! No offence but ya’ll eat some funny food :P
However after your description it doesn’t sound too bad but something in my head is screaming nooooooooo. I too love food! Most of my friends can’t believe how much I can eat, considering how small I am.
Trust me, dessert pizza is more in pie land and not in scary deep-fried twinkie land. ;-)
Om nom nom.
Love,
Me
Nommers, the leftovers were one of the best random gifts ever!
Love,
Me
I just looked up recipes for dessert pizza — I’m definitely going to make this with my teens one day. They will love it!
Oh, I’m sure you’ll have some happy teens on your hands. Yay!
