This started as a way to use leftover fathead dough, and now my kids request it by name. Keto dessert pizza spreads a sweet cream cheese base over a baked almond dough crust, then gets topped with berries and a drizzle of sugar-free chocolate for a sliceable treat.

Slice it like a real pizza and everyone grabs a wedge. The cool tangy base against the crisp crust makes it disappear faster than any actual pizza in my house.
