‘Instagram famous’ baker Eloise Head has invented an ingenious way of turning leftover Easter chocolate into a show-stopping dessert.
The brains behind viral food account ‘FitWaffle Kitchen’ used mini eggs and full-size eggs broken into bite-sized chunks to make a sweet cookie dough pizza which has set mouths watering on social media.
The London chef makes the base with a simple mixture of butter, sugar, flour, egg yolk and chocolate chips, then decorates the top with ready-made chocolate icing and an assortment of toppings such as eggs, M&Ms and Oreos on each slice.
Ms Head said she created the pizza when she found leftover icing and odd bars of chocolate in the cupboard which she didn’t want to go to waste.

To make the cookie dough base, Ms Head beats 100 grams of softened butter with 125 grams of light brown sugar, then adds the yolk of one egg and half a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Next, she sieves in 160 grams of plain flour along with a quarter of a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and stirs until the mixture has formed into a dough.
Ms Head tips in 70 grams of chocolate chips before pressing the dough into the base of a nine inch cake tin, lightly greased or lined with baking paper.
She bakes the dough at 160 degrees Celsius for 10 to 15 minutes, then leaves it to cool before icing it with 150 grams of pre-mixed Cadbury chocolate frosting.
A video of the recipe, which has racked up almost 23,000 ‘likes’ since it was uploaded online on April 5, has gone viral
