Fruit Pizza

Nothing can dare top my last dessert recipe of Sopapilla Cheesecake but I know there are fruit lovers out there so here is a decadent dessert for them. Fruit Pizza is great for any time of the day and the first time I had it was actually for breakfast. I wasn’t ready for the sweet surprise waiting for me but it was so good, I had to take the recipe home.

I’m sure most of you have tried or at least heard of this recipe before so this delicious treat isn’t new to you. It’s an extremely easy dessert and you can change it up with the kind of fruit you enjoy or the fruit that is in season. This is also a great summertime dessert and everyone seems to love it.

Start with a roll of store bought sugar cookie dough and spread it out on a pizza pan. Make sure to spread the dough all around the pan evenly. Bake the cookie dough as indicated in the directions on the box or roll. Once it is done baking let the dough cool for about 30 minutes. While the dough is cooling, beat in a small bowl one package of softened cream cheese, a third of a cup of sugar and half of a teaspoon of vanilla extract until the mixture looks fluffy. Spread this mixture evenly on the cooled cookie dough. Now it is time for the fun and decorative part. During the summer, most fruits are available but if not, choose the fruits that you enjoy the most. Top the cream cheese mixture with whatever fruit you prefer. I like to add chopped strawberries and blueberries.

This makes a fresh and tasty dessert. I hope you’ve enjoyed the recipes I have shared and added a new meal to your weekly menu!
