Teresa’s Martini Pizza Dolce

Martini Pizza Dolce

Can classic Pizza Dolce be improved on? For me, who craves a lick of bitterness amongst the sweetness, this Martini Pizza Dolce is simply wonderful, particularly in hot sticky weather. Teresa made and served it as the finale at the party of her neighbour who runs Ciao Abruzzo. She brought it round more for me to indulge in for breakfast after hearing I had had a car crash. You simply have to try it – it’s divine!
