Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza- slice

The other day in my Raspberry Cheesecake Dessert post I shared with you that I started homeschooling my youngest.

Homeschooling is a huge adjustment for me. I’m now a shut-in. I think I’m more shut-in than I was when I had newborn babies. And now I have to squeeze my work in somewhere in between math and language arts. Let’s not even talk about how difficult it is to work a shower into my schedule!

When I pulled him out we told ourselves we were going to do homeschool right (whatever that means) and I was going to teach him more than he would have ever learned being at school. I guess you could say I’m a little hard core!

We are about 6 weeks into our homeschool routine and I guess you could still say I’m a slave driver but Payson and I can both admit we are cruising through the material and he’s learning by leaps and bounds.

Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza- yummy

That was until today! I felt like a disgusting greasy mess and I couldn’t wait one more minute to shower. So I taught him how to read and write Roman Numerals (yes I know he won’t ever really use it again, but it was the next lesson in the book and I think it’s important that he at least is familiar with them) and let him practice while I took a much needed lightning fast shower!

Then I turned him loose on his review of fragmented, run on, and compound sentences, and past perfect tense verbs and I turned myself loose on Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza! YOU GUYS! This stuff is the best thing that happened today…okay, I know Roman Numerals aren’t much competition! But still, it’s so stinking good!

And it turns out that it’s a great motivator too! Because I wouldn’t let Payson have even one little lick of a spoon, or bite until he finished his work! That kid is incredibly smart and quick when he has Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza dangling over his head!

Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza- With Rhodes

So, his school work is finished! Mine work is not!

And when that happens what does any responsible mother and teacher do? Pawn their jobs off on the kid/student! Ha! He’s vacuuming, doing dishes, and starting laundry! Hey, more kids should know how to do those jobs anyway right!

Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza- Store bought cookie dough

Really quickly let me tell you about Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza!

Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza- baked

Like I said, Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza only has 4 ingredients

  • Rhodes frozen dough
  • hot fudge sauce (Check out my recipe for my favorite Homemade Hot Fudge Sauce)
  • Store bought cookie dough (Go ahead and make your own if you don’t have math to correct and payroll due to your employees)
  • A can of vanilla frosting (And if you still don’t have anything to do you can make this from scratch too!)
Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza-kids love it

Here’s a rundown on how to put Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza together.

  • Thaw Rhodes frozen dough according to package directions. I used one loaf and let it sit out overnight. Before spreading the dough out I always let it rest for a few minutes and it seems to make it so much easier to work with.
  • Move rack to the center position in the oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Form pizza crust with dough. My pizza pan is a 15” pan and one loaf is perfect for that size pan.
  • Warm up 1/2 -¾ cups hot fudge sauce. I stick it in the microwave for a few seconds. You just need it warm enough to spread easily.
  • Crumble cookie dough over hot fudge sauce. I use my trusty fingers.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes.
  • Let pizza cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Warm up additional hot fudge sauce and vanilla icing and drizzle over pizza.
  • Slice into pieces and dig in!
Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza- only 3 ingredients

Using store bought ingredients makes Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza incredibly quick and easy to make. I can’t even tell you how many times using Rhodes frozen dough has saved my life!  

After Payson finished his work and rewarded him with his Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza, as promised, he just couldn’t stop talking about how soft, and tender the crust was (hey thanks Rhodes for making me look like a rock star with so little effort on my part), how incredible even store bought cookie dough tastes on pizza, and how he could drink hot fudge sauce from the jar!

Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza- Chocolate Sauce

Needless to say, I might be making Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza everyday for the rest of the school year in an attempt to get the kid to finish his homework a little faster!

I might gain weight, but we all might be happier in the end! And since Pi Day is right around the corner can we pretend like I’m totally on top of my game and that making Cookie Dough Dessert Pizza counts as studying Pi?

      Lol! He was getting frustrated with his Roman Numeral lesson and I kept having to look at the answer key. I mean who ever uses them besides in telling time anyway! And I can’t even tell you how yummy cookies are on top of pizza!

      I hear you! You must be familiar with the whole, “I’m just going to have one more half of a slice” thinking. Then I repeat that whole thought process over and over! So worth it though!

    I’m interested to read more about how your homeschool journey is going. We are considering homeschooling our daughter, but I am afraid of exactly what you mentioned about being a shut in.

      Hi Jenna! There are obviously pros and cons to homeschooling. This is the second time I’ve homeschooled a child, both for different reasons. One child needed a little extra help, and with this child I didn’t think he was being taught enough at school.

      Let’s talk about the pros first! Homeschool is so much more efficient than traditional school. I think we probably cover at least twice as much material as they do at school, and spend a little bit less time in class everyday. I’m preatty hard core so we do have a very structured schedule though. I structure the teaching around his learning style so he grasps every single concept, and if he doesn’t we can work on it another day. If he gets the concept really quickly we can move on. I correct each assignment the same day it’s turned in because I want to make sure he is proficient in each concept before moving on. A school principal told me that if a mom has access to materials, has the time and desire to teach her child, and is intelligent a public education will never measure up to the homeschooling education she can give her child.

      Now, the Debbie Downer…the cons! My child is a social butterfly! He misses his friends terribly. I think there is much to be learned from associating with other people besides mom. It’s good for them to learn to take turns, work in an environment that’s not completely suited to their needs, and learn from a teaching method that’s not tailored to them. Sometimes we have to learn in situations that are’t ideal and they need to be able to adapt. As far as my life goes, adding homeschool to my plate makes it almost unmanageable. It’s a huge committment. I keep all of our farm books, manage my blog, and am still a mom and wife; add those up and it’s way beyond a full time job without homeschool! I have to get up earlier, stay up later, and let go of somethings. My family is good to pitch in and help fill in the gaps, but there is still plenty that’s falling through the cracks. Because my homeschool is so structured I have a hard time making appointments, getting out to see friends, or even chatting on the phone with my sister! I’m pretty committed to school most of the day.

      I’m planning to send my child back to school next year so I can play the mental game of, “I only have 47 more days left. I can do anything for 47 days!” I know I will get to reclaim my life soon! Who knows how stragley my hair will be by then! I remind my self of his progress often which helps. And I think if I was homeschooling for a longer period of time I wouldn’t feel as much pressure to cram so much material in each day. I could spread it out a litte more.

      Homeschooling is really tough. But in the end I think it’s a far superior education. You just have to decide what’s right for your child, you, and your whole family. You also have to consider your relationship with that child and determine if you can still be friends, the teacher, and the mom at the same time. It works for us!

      Good luck! Let me know if I can help you!
