Chocolate Pizza Recipe

Pizza is extremely popular in Brazil. So much so that they have taken it to a new level. The first and only time that I've seen chocolate pizza served up was in a restaurant in a city called Piracicaba in Brazil's Sâo Paulo state. The restaurant served their pizzas rodizio style where the wait staff carried different pizzas around the dining room. You could get as many slices of any type of pizza that you wanted for one low price. Similar to Cici's but about 100 times better.

Anyway, this recipe for chocolate pizza is my rendition of one of the pizzas that I tried at this restaurant. You can make it with the Neapolitan Dough. Be sure to let it cool adequately after removing it from the over so that the chocolate does not run all over the place. Here are the details for making your own chocolate pizza:

Ingredients:
Neapolitan Dough
scamorza cheese
chocolate syrup (I used Hershey's brand)
1/2 of a banana, thin slices
cinnamon

Preparation:

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
   
2. Prepare the Neapolitan Dough according to the recipe.
3. Cover the dough with thin slices of the scamorza cheese.
4. Drizzle the chocolate syrup to almost cover the cheese. You don't have to cover all of the cheese as the chocolate will spread out a little when it heats up in the oven.
5. Cover the chocolate with the thin slices of banana.
6. Sprinkle a little cinnamon on top of the bananas.
7. Bake for 10 minutes.
8. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then serve.
