Fruit Pizza

You can use any pizza crust you want, but for this one I used a simple sugar cookie recipe. For the spread, I used a cream cheese frosting. Then you simply top it with your favorite fruits.

Sugar Cookie/ Pizza crust:

3/4 cup soft butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla or lemon
3 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt (don't level)

Mix the first four ingredients together, then sift and stir in the remaining ingredients. Chill the dough for at least one hour. Roll out to 1/8 inch thick. Cut the dough into desired shape then place the dough on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until slightly golden (for the pizza crust, you may want to reduce the temp. to 375 and bake for a little longer).

Temp. 400 Time 6-8 minutes Makes 4 dozen cookies or 1 large crust



Cream Cheese Frosting

1-8 oz. package of cream cheese (room temp.)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Blend the ingredients and spread on cooled pizza crust or cookies.
