Chocolate Pizza Inspired by Max Brenner Chocolate

To contact us Click HERE
I first discovered Max Brenner chocolate on Food Network. During an episode about chocolate on "Unwrapped" I was mesmirized by this restaurant. They showed chocolate drizzled breakfast plates with extra beakers of chocolate on the size, chocolate fondue, and "hug mugs" of drinking chocolate.
There was on specific item they showed than intrigued me enough that I recreated it a few days later. Looks delicious but you may be wondering what it is, right?

It is Chocolate Pizza! According to the Max Brenner menu, "Chocolate Chunks Pizza* double chocolate melting chunks & a choice of 2: crunchy hazelnut bits, bananas, peanut butter or roasted marshmallows."

I made mine with milk chocolate chunks, peanut butter, marshmallows, and a fine dusting of ground almonds. I used the whole wheat tandoori naan bread from Trader Joes. First you layer milk chocolate chunks on the bread.

Next, layer some mini marshmallows on top of the chocolate chunks.

Preheat oven to 350 and place chocolate pizza on a baking sheet and allow the chocolate to melt and the marshmallows to soften and faintly brown on the tops.

For this part, I melted some cream peanut butter in a small dish. Be careful not to microwave it too long as it becomes fluid quickly. Drizzle peanut butter over top of the warm pizza immediately after removing from the oven.

Sprinkle either chopped almonds or hazelnuts on top and serve.


I also made my own drinking chocolate spiced with cinnamon with a dollop of fresh homemade whipped cream on top. I think I have to run a few miles just after writing this post!



Background Changes

To contact us Click HERE
I just wanted to let you all know I am thinking of changing my background! I currently have this gray/white/yellow chevron style background until I figure out how to upload the aqua/gray chevron background that I really want. I also found some similar variations. Let me know what you think! I am too tired tonight to continue, but hopefully I will get it figured out within the next few days!
Thank you!

I have been baking and cooking a loy lately and thought I would share a collection of photos of what I have been up to. As an brand ambassador for AllRecipes.com I was asked to make three Al Fresco Chicken recipes this month. This is the Greek Salad with Spinach Feta Chicken Sausage.

Earlier this week I made Garlic Chicken Sausage and Summer Vegetable Saute.

This was the Liguini with Roasted Vegetables and Tomato Basil Chicken Meatballs, which I might add was delicious.

I whipped up some Cream Filled Cupcakes aka Hostness Cupcakes for my husband to take to work.

This was something different that I came across but wanted to try it since I had all of the ingredients. It is the Grilled Brie & Apple Sandwich  from the GoBoldWithButter.com website I found through AllRecipes.

My signature strawberry almond vanilla smoothie. It is great that I am throw this tasty drink together quickly.

This month I was also asked to make my favorite cocktail on AllRecipes.com as a brand ambassador. My drink of choice would be champagne. We don't keep any hard liquors in our home, so I searched through many champagne cocktail recipes which I have to say there is a lot to choose from!

I settled on the Champagne Cocktail recipe because the recipe didn't have any reviews or photos yet it sounded delicious. This drink is made with champagne, vanilla ice cream, and lemonade. (I used pink lemonade.)

Feeling inspired one morning, I decided to make a frozen toaster waffle but make it look like a breakfast you would be served at a nice retaurant.

I want to show you all that it is easy to do at home with a little creativity you can serve your guests, or a loved one a speical breakfast at home that looks and tastes good.

Well.....I had an open bottle of champagne so I have to use it up, right? I made another champagne cocktail.

This one is called Pomosa which is pomegrante and champagne. (I used a sprarkling pomegrante juice in mine. )

My drink of choice lately: Cold Chai or known as an Iced Chai at Starbucks. I have been making them at home since they are super easy to make. Equal parts of liquid chai concentrate and milk.

Put it in your to-go cup and your on your way and saving money.

I made this grilled cheese with brie, swiss, onions, and tomatos. I butter the bread with Compound Herb Butter from GoBoldWithButter.com This butter recipe is a must try!

InstaFriday: My Week in Pictures

To contact us Click HERE
Great maxi dress at Target, but sadly they didn't have it in my size. This one was too large for me.  :(


This got this ottoman at Target for $10.98! It was missing the tag and was bouncing around the the clearance shelves for a couple of months until I saw it, new it had to be cheap, and had an employee track down a price for it. This gray beauty now lives in my entry.

Greek dinner: Falafel Sandwich.

Just my cat taking a nap in my arms. So precious.

What do you know? Shopping at Target. One of my favorite things to do. I don't usually buy a bunch of stuff, but I like to look around.

Daughter's new maxi dress.

Mmmm...Baskin Robbins birthday cake.

Having a homemade latte.

We went to Disneyland, this is the new look of the Disneyland Hotel lobby. Sweet tea cup seating!

I made a frozen toaster waffle look fancy. Very easy to do!

Attempting to colorblock.

Latte in Old Town San Diego. I am currently in a hypothyroid swing and by 10:00AM all energy and life has been sucked out of me and this is the first time where I felt like I need coffee to get through the day. Perhaps that is why you see so many latte photos this week.   :)

I love this makeup brush set for obvious reasons. #aqua
