Ingredients
  

For the pizza base
  • 1 tube 13.8 oz refrigerated pizza dough
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
For the cinnamon sugar topping
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
For the glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-inch pizza pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Unroll the pizza dough onto the pan and gently stretch it into an even circle. Brush the surface with the melted butter.
Making the Topping
  1. In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  2. Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously across the surface, leaving a small border around the edge.
Baking
  1. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden around the edges and the cinnamon sugar is bubbly and lightly caramelized.
Making the Glaze
  1. While the pizza bakes, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Add a tiny splash more milk if needed to reach a drizzling consistency.
Finishing Touches
  1. Let the dessert pizza cool for about 5 minutes, then drizzle the glaze over the top. Slice into wedges and serve warm.
