Description
Create a fun winter treat with this Cheesy Snowman Pizza, featuring two mini pizzas topped with gooey cheese and decorated to look like a snowman.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 batch pizza dough (or 2 store-bought mini pizza crusts)
- Olive oil (for brushing)
- 2 cups (200 g) shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup shredded provolone or Monterey Jack (optional, extra melt)
- 1 small carrot piece (nose)
- 2 black olives (sliced for eyes & buttons)
- Black olive strips or balsamic reduction (mouth)
- 1 red bell pepper strip OR a cooked pepperoni strip (scarf)
- 1 red bell pepper half-moon or mini pizza ring (hat)
- Grated parmesan for “snow”
- Optional: mini mozzarella pearl for hat pom-pom
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).
- Roll out two dough circles: one large (body) and one smaller (head). Place the small circle above the large one, overlapping slightly, and press gently to attach at the seam. Brush lightly with olive oil.
- Cover the entire snowman shape with lots of mozzarella, adding more around the edges for bubbly brown spots.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes or until cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Once out of the oven, decorate the snowman: for the face, use small pieces of black olive for eyes, a small carrot triangle for the nose, and a thin olive strip or drizzle of balsamic for the smile. For buttons, use small round olive slices or peppercorn-shaped olives. For the scarf, place a strip of red bell pepper or pepperoni around the “neck.” For the hat, use a red bell pepper cap or a mini pizza crust half, and add a small dollop of mozzarella or a tiny mozzarella pearl for a pom-pom. Optionally, dust with a bit of parmesan snow.

- Serve immediately for the best taste.
