Fruit Pizza - YUMMY!!!

Spring is in the Air

Finally, Spring is starting to arrive all over the country and that awful snow and cold will soon be gone. My favorite time of year is Spring. Although, I don't live up north anymore I love when the birds start chirping again and the windows are open and everyone seems to have such a happier attitude. I am looking forward to visiting Kansas in mid April so that I can enjoy some of that Spring time glow. I am passing along one of my favorite Spring/Summer recipes. It is super easy; it is great for dessert after a BBQ or just something fresh and sweet! It is a happy ending to any meal. Enjpy!!!

Fruit Pizza

Recipe:

INGREDIENTS
1 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated sugar cookies
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup powder sugar
1 cup fresh peach slices
1 cup halved or quartered fresh strawberries
1 cup fresh blueberries
 
*Any other fruit you like (kiwi, apples, banana, raspberries)
 
DIRECTIONS
  • Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 12-inch pizza pan or spray with cooking spray. In pan, break up cookie dough; press dough evenly in bottom of pan to form crust.
  • Bake 16 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • In small bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Spread mixture over cooled crust. Arrange fruit over cream cheese.
 Cut into wedges or squares. Store in refrigerator.
I have also drizzled melted chocolate over the pizza too for an extra touch!
