Help your chocolate peanut butter dessert pizza look more like a pizza by leaving the edge of the brownie base visible when you apply the frosting "sauce."
If you want to add a pop of color to your brownie dessert pizza, try scattering a 1/2 cup of peanut butter M&M’s® over the top of the peanut butter cups, before you apply the peanut butter drizzle.
The peanut butter drizzle in this recipe is on the thick side. If you'd like to have a thinner drizzle, add another teaspoon of milk. You can also pour the peanut butter drizzle into a small resealable food-storage plastic bag, make a small cut in one corner of the bag and squeeze the bag slightly as you drizzle over the top of the pizza.
