Pizzookies are little individual servings filled with warm gooey chocolate cookie and ice cream. We love topping our Pizzookie with chocolate and/or caramel sauce for a knock-your-socks-off dessert that’s fancy enough for company and easy enough for a casual family treat. They can be made with 100% store-bought short cuts, or you can make any part of them with homemade recipes, we’ll provide links for all the options but they are just as delicious either way! Scroll past recipe card for step-by-step photos and some more tips.

- Remove from oven and allow to cool about 5 minutes. Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and drizzle with chocolate, or caramel or both!
Why a Pizzookie?
How to Make a Pizzookie
You can absolutely use a tub of store-bought cookie dough or make your own. If you want to only make 2-4 pizzookies, I recommend making this easy dough from our giant cookie since it makes a smaller amount.
When you order a Pizzookie at a restaurant, it often comes in a mini skillet. There are a lot of options, styles and sizes of those available on Amazon. We often bust out the mini cast iron skillet when making one for a special occasion, or if we’re going to share, but most times we love using ramekins because they’re so easy to serve in and you don’t end up with a hot handle you have to watch out for. There is however something fun about eating out of a skillet. So, either way!

Questions & Reviews
Oh My Goodness – All I can say is “I love you”! What a great idea 🙂
YUM!
I was looking for a dessert for this evenings meal and of course popped on here first and saw these. I made 14 of them for my family and the 10 teenage boys we have right now and they were gobbled up quickly. If teenage boy love them you know they must be good. Some even asked for the recipe. 🙂
I just found your blog and I can’t wait to try this! When I make cookie dough I do a double-batch then stick the extra in a gallon size freezer bag and pop it in the freezer. It’s perfect for cravings like this, or unexpected guests 🙂
Oh I have soo missed the pizookies from Oregano’s. Thank you so much. Now if only I had some ramekins!
Kate, you told me once that these would win the heart of any girl. Tonight, I’m putting you to the test. They do look amazing though. If they don’t work on her, I may just eat one myself.
My husband and I tried these last week and we are totally addicted now. We have seriously eaten them like 5 of the last 6 days. Amazingly delicious! Thank you for posting such great stuff.
this is hands down the most glorious thing i've ever seen! I've been dying to find a recipe for this as i had it for dessert at a restaurant in NY…except it came with a tiny vanilla milkshake to pour inside….i've been dreaming of it since! so easy! 🙂
These look amazing! I can't wait to try them!
