It’s an easy, colorful centerpiece that celebrates friendship and music and is perfect for a Swiftie get-together.

What pan should you use for the cookie pizza?
A large, deep pan works best to get that classic “pizza” size. If you don’t have a vintage 16-inch removable-bottom pan, a 12-inch springform pan is an excellent modern option and is easier to handle. Springform pans let you lift the cookie pizza out cleanly. If you want to transport or gift it, ask a pizzeria for an empty pizza box—the boxes are usually free and make presentation easy.
How to make a Friendship Bracelet Cookie Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 12-inch springform pan with non-stick spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with both sugars using an electric mixer for about 2 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Mix in the vanilla, then add the eggs one at a time, beating until just combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients, about 1/2 cup of flour at a time, until fully incorporated. Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the chocolate chips.
- Press the cookie dough evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 23–26 minutes, or until the cookie is set and lightly golden at the edges. Baking times vary by oven and pan, so watch closely near the end.
- Let the cookie cool completely in the pan before decorating.
- Use frosting as “glue” to attach candy decorations. Cut SweetTart ropes into small pieces for bracelet beads, arrange Mega Smarties and gummy candies into bracelet shapes, and write song titles or initials on Mega Smarties with an edible ink marker.
- Add a border of frosting stars around the edge for a finished look. Serve immediately or store covered until ready to enjoy.
A few decorating tips: choose contrasting frosting colors to make the candy pop, plan your bracelet layouts before piping frosting, and use the edible marker on flat candies for easy lettering. The edible markers with dual tips (fine and broader) are especially handy for writing small song titles on candy.
Cut ropes into bite-sized “beads,” press them into the frosting to form bracelet lines, and add gummy accents. Once decorated, the cookie pizza makes a colorful, shareable dessert that’s both playful and nostalgic.
