Penny's Mouth-watering Fruit Pizza


Most times when my best friend's mom would bring this to parties, I never had the chance to try it. This dessert is beautifully bright and as stimulating to the eyes as it is to taste buds. Seasonal fruits pop out and their fresh colors catch every one's eyes. Finally, when Penny brought this to my college graduation/moving to California party, someone was smart enough to hide one for later. Penny put a serious twist on pizza! My added touch is chocolate chip cookie dough, for a little bit of a crunch.

Favorite Fruits (diced thinly): kiwis, strawberries, blackberries, banana, clementine oranges (could get mushy tho)

Crust:

a roll of store bought sugar or chocolate chip cookie dough - depending on your love for chocolate

Cream Filling:
2 packs of cream cheese
(8 oz each), softened
1 cup confectioner's sugar
1 carton (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed

Glaze:
1 cup Pineapple Juice
1 cup Orange Juice
2 tbsp cornstarch

Bake cookie dough on round pizza pan as recommended on package. Let cool.

Whip cream cheese until smooth, add sugar and cool whip. Spread over crust.

For glaze, add juices and cornstarch over med-low heat until thickened. Reserve 1/2 cup, brush remaining over cream filling layer. Arrange fruit over glaze and brush remaining glaze over fruit. Chill until ready to serve.

12 servings
