Surprisingly addictive, our chocolate pizza recipe is the perfect sweet treat when cooking in a pizza oven. The secret is to pre-bake the pizza base and then lightly melt the chocolate before serving.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Pre-heat your oven at 400°C.
  2. To make the salted caramel sauce, place all the ingredients in a pan and bring to boil, allow to cool down and set aside.
  3. Lightly dust a clean surface with some flour or semolina flour and place your dough ball in the centre. Leaving one inch on either side of the diameter of the dough ball, press the dough with all fingers to flatten, turn to the other side and repeat the process. Turn back to the original side and repeat the process one more time.
  4. Use your right hand to hold the flatten dough one inch in to keep the edge puffy and place your left hand’s thumb and index fingers on the top side of the dough and the rest of fingers below and pull the dough to stretch. Flip the dough over to your forearm with your palm open and flip back to the bench. Repeat the process a few times to stretch the dough evenly.
  5. Brush the pizza base with the melted butter and transfer onto a pizza peel which is also lightly dusted with semolina flour and stretch the edges of the pizza base, so it’s fully laid out.
  6. Using your pizza peel, slide your pizza into your Fuego oven. Using a turning pizza peel pick the pizza from the side, bring to the front of the oven and turn it round. Do not turn your pizza inside the oven, as it will pick too much ash. Keep your eyes on the pizza, as failing to turn regularly will result in very charred black edges.
  7. Once you have a slight puffed crust with light brown spots all around, remove the pizza base from the oven with your turning peel. Using a knife, spread two tablespoons of the chocolate-hazelnut spread, sprinkle one tablespoon of dark, milk and white chocolate chips, toasted hazelnuts and slide the pizza back into the oven.
  8. Keep turning the pizza until the chocolate is melted, about 1 minute and remove the pizza from the oven with your turning peel onto a serving platter. Watch out, the pizza will be extremely hot once removed from the oven; you may need to leave it a minute to cool.

    My Fuego wood fired pizza oven...

    “Our Fuego wood oven has transformed our restaurant! As a piece of kit, it is extremely versatile and controllable, allowing us to roast all of our meats and vegetables in the wood burning oven as well as using it as a charcoal grill during service. The flavour of everything coming out of the Fuego clay pizza oven is incredible due to the amazing smoky, charred tones added to the smell and taste of everything that’s cooked in it. It is not expensive to run as all the kiln-dried wood we use heats the wood fired pizza oven pretty quickly and it retains its temperature really well, only needing to add logs to the fire a few times over the course of service.”

    My Fuego wood fired pizza oven...

    “We wanted a traditional wood oven that ticked lots of boxes, for us it had to be made of brick for the authentic feel, have amazing functionality and great quality. Our Fuego clay pizza oven ticks them all. Our pizza nights are such a fantastic feature for the guests that stay in our holiday cottages and it’s a great way of bringing friends and family together for making those special memories. Highly recommended”
