new recipe of the week!

Chocolate Macaroon Pizza

source: The Pampered Chef - All the Best from our kitchens to yours.

Prep time: 20 miutes

Bake time: 35-40 minutes.

"This super-rich brownie pizza is reminiscent of a popular chocolate covered coconut candy bar."

1 pkg (19-21 ounces) fudge brownie mix (plus the ingr. to make the brownies)  - or just make them the good ol' fashioned way of course!! :)

2 egg whites

1 pkg (14 ounces) sweetened flaked coconut

1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)

1 pkg (2.25 ounces) sliced almonds  (or do it the Julia-susan way, beat a bag of whole almonds with the toy hammer, and your rolling pin)

2 tbsp semi sweet chocolate chips melted

1 tsp veg. oil

okay, my directions will be different than those found in the book i got them from, simply because hardly anyone i know has all the pampered chef products, so we do things a little differently than the books tell us: 

1) preheat oven to 375 degrees. 

Prepare brownie mix as the package directs.

pour batter onto baking tray, pizza tray, baking stone, whatever you have for baking cookies, etc.

spread into a 14 inch (approx) circle.

bake for 15 - 18 minutes. or until the brownie is SET. do not overbake.

cool.

2) in a bowl mix egg whites, coconut and milk. mix well.spread over top of brownie. to within 1/4 inch from the edge.  sprinkle with almonds.  return to oven for 20-25 minutes. or until the edges are a golden brown. remove from oven.

cool.

3) melt the chocolate in which ever way you like to. drizzle on the pizza.  cut into wedges. serve! :)

it was SO EASY and it looks so impressive!!

Time to call the neighbors over!! :)
