What is a pizookie?

A pizookie is the signature dessert at BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse. It’s a pizza/cookie hybrid baked in a pan and served warm and gooey and topped with scoops of vanilla ice cream. 

Each pizookie at the restaurant will set you back about $8, so why not take that dough and make your own deep dish cookie pie?

7. Place the cookie dough into the prepared skillet. Use your fingers to press it down to fill the skillet. Bake for 17-20 minutes or until the top is slightly crispy and the edges have started to pull away from the skillet.

8. Allow the pizookie to cool slightly before serving. Serve the warm cookie with scoops of your favorite ice cream.

🔄Substitutions and Variations

Feel free to use different baking chips in the cookie dough. Some tasty variations include using butterscotch chips and peanut butter chips. You can use one variety of chocolate chips or use a combination. 

You could even add some chopped almonds and shredded coconut to have a pizookie version of Almond Joy.

Another way to change the flavor of the dish is to substitute flavored ice creams in place of vanilla, such as coconut ice cream, butter pecan ice cream, and chocolate ice cream. Or if you really want to indulge, serve with a scoop of Moose Tracks ice cream.

FAQs

How do I know when my pizookie is done baking?

You want the top of the cookie to be slightly crunchy while the inside remains soft and gooey. In order to ensure this outcome, it is important to err on the side of underbaking your cookie. The cookie will continue to bake in the skillet once it is removed, so if the top is lightly crunchy, but your finger can easily push down, it is okay to remove it from the oven.

If you overbake it, but it is burnt, don’t throw it out. You will probably still have a delicious chocolate-chocolate chip cookie.

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes! You can make the dough and store it in the freezer or refrigerator. If you freeze it, allow the frozen dough to thaw in the refrigerator overnight before using.
