- Combine margarine and sugar in a medium mixing bowl for the crust.
- Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy.
- Add thawed egg product and beat well.
- Alternately add the chocolate flavored syrup and flour, beating at low speed after each addition until combined.
- Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared pizza pan.
- Bake in a 350°F oven for 20 minutes or until the top springs back when lightly touched.

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using dark chocolate syrup instead of chocolate flavored syrup. If you want to enhance the fruit topping, add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg. You can substitute the margarine with unsalted butter for a more traditional taste. If peaches are not in season, try using other fruits like strawberries or blueberries, which also pair beautifully with this dessert.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the fruit and brownie pizza as a delightful dessert at gatherings or family meals. It pairs well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for added indulgence. For a refreshing contrast, consider serving with a side of tart yogurt or a light fruit salad, which complements the sweetness of the brownie.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover fruit and brownie pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place individual wedges in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds or until warm. Be cautious not to overheat, as it can make the brownie crust tough.
