Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to achieve a 12-inch circle and transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake the pizza crust until lightly golden, approximately 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
While the crust is baking, prepare the chocolate ganache by heating the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it starts to steam.
Remove the cream from heat and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter.
Stir until smooth and all the chocolate is melted, forming a thick ganache. Set aside to cool slightly.
Spread the chocolate ganache evenly over the slightly cooled pizza crust.
Top the chocolate layer with sliced strawberries and bananas.
Sprinkle chopped hazelnuts over the fruit-topped chocolate.
Dust the pizza lightly with powdered sugar for added sweetness.
Optionally, garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra burst of color and freshness.
Cut the chocolate pizza into wedges and serve immediately, enjoying this delightful mix of sweet, fruity, and nutty flavors.
