Ingredients
  

For the Cake Base:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup whole milk

3 large eggs

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

For the Toppings:

1 cup strawberry jam

1 cup whipped cream

1 cup chocolate ganache (made from 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1/2 cup chocolate chips)

Fresh strawberries, sliced

Fresh bananas, sliced

Chocolate shavings or sprinkles for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12-inch round pizza pan.

    Prepare the Cake Batter: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

        Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients while alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined; do not over-mix.

          Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared pizza pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

            Prepare the Chocolate Ganache: While the cake is cooling, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour it over the chocolate chips in a bowl. Let it sit for a minute, then stir until smooth and glossy. Allow it to cool slightly.

              Assemble the Pizza: Once the cake has cooled completely, spread the strawberry jam evenly over the surface. Follow with a layer of whipped cream.

                Add Fresh Fruit and Ganache: Arrange sliced strawberries and bananas on top of the whipped cream. Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the fruits.

                  Garnish and Serve: Finish by sprinkling chocolate shavings or colored sprinkles over the top for added visual flair. Slice the cake into pizza-like wedges and serve immediately.
