Made this for a snack for the kids' sleepover this weekend, and it went over great! I used chopped roasted peanuts instead of the hazelnuts, because we had lots of them on hand, and also used peanut butter chips instead of the white chocolate chips. The boys asked to have this again the next time they stay over! Probably won't give it to them so close to bedtime next time though, LOL. Thanks for sharing!

Wowee! This took me to my happy place! I made it using One Pound Pizza Dough Abm (Or 1 1/2 Pounds), which makes a perfect 1 pound pizza dough -- in your bread machine! I was tempted to sweeten the dough a bit, but resisted, and I'm soooo glad I did because the pizza dough was like the straight guy balancing the sweetness of the chocolates and Nutella. I thought this would only be good served warm; wrong again! Once sliced, these were even better at room temp! I think these could be renamed to "Chocolate Pizza Cookies"!!!!! Thanks, Boommette! Made for PRMR.

I'm not rating this as I have not yet tried it! But as I read the recipe and reviews I just thought, you need to use a brownie mix for the pizza crust! It would be extreme chocolate, but would taste better than plain dough! You could even use refrigerated cookie dough!
