Although Italian calzones are considered a closed pizza, you can make them as a dessert with a sweet filling. To make things easier, use store-bought pizza dough. Layer the dough circles with a mascarpone and ricotta cheese filling and a chocolate-hazelnut spread (like Nutella), seal everything, and bake for just 10 minutes. To serve, dust the dessert calzones with powdered sugar and drizzle with a quick strawberry sauce, which perfectly complements the rich chocolate-cream filling.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- In a food processor, combine the ricotta, mascarpone, egg yolk, and powdered sugar until smooth. Transfer the ricotta mixture to a small bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a clean food processor, puree the strawberries with 1 tablespoon of sugar until smooth. Transfer the strawberry sauce to a small bowl and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate hazelnut spread and cream.
- Position the oven rack on the middle shelf and preheat the oven to 230°C.
- Line a large, heavy baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll each piece of pizza dough into a 7.5-inch (17.5-cm) circle. Spread the ricotta mixture over the center of the bottom half of each dough circle. Spread the chocolate mixture over the cheese mixture. Brush the bottom edges of the dough with beaten egg. Fold the empty half of the dough over the filling. Press the edges of the dough firmly together to seal the filling. Trim the edges with a round pastry cutter. Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet, spreading them evenly.
- Brush the tops of the calzones with beaten egg. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and cool the calzones for 15 minutes. Divide among plates and dust with powdered sugar. Drizzle each serving with strawberry sauce and serve.
