What is a Pizookie?
A Pizookie is simply the perfect combination of everyone’s two favorite foods: pizza and a cookie! Pizza + cookie = Pizookie!
What’s so great about this dessert is that it is totally customizable! Just take your average chocolate chunk cookie dough and spread it into a cast-iron skillet or a pizza-sized sheet pan!
How to Make a Pizookie
Pizookies give brand-new meaning to the words simple and delicious!
- Cream butter and sugars together and add an egg.
- Add remaining ingredients and thoroughly combine (per recipe below).
- Press dough into prepared pan and bake until the center is just set.
Remove from oven and let sit for about 5 minutes before cutting (into wedges like a pizza) and serving. Don’t forget that scoop of ice cream!

Tips for Pizookies
Pizookies are super fun to make for slumber parties or other get-togethers!
No time? No problem! Use pre-made cookie dough, spread it in the pan of your choice, then bake!
Have an Air Fryer? Even easier! Place dough on a sheet of parchment paper and bake according to air fryer instructions. Top with a scoop or two of your favorite ice cream and serve with a copycat shamrock shake to wash it all down!
How to Store and Reheat
Pizookies are easy to store and reheat!
Refrigerator or Countertop: Put your Pizookie slices in a zippered bag or Stasher Bag and keep them at room temperature or in the fridge until you are ready to eat them again.
For Freezing: To keep them longer than a week, put them in a Stasher Bag or zippered bag labeled with the date on it and pop them into the freezer.
For Thawing: Let the Pizookie thaw at room temp until it’s ready to eat or reheat. Pop in the microwave for about a minute for reheating and don’t forget that scoop of ice cream!
Pizookie cookies will be a family favorite all year long!
