Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a pizza pan to ensure your cookie crust releases easily once baked.
-
In a mixing bowl, cream together the brown sugar and softened butter until smooth and creamy. This step builds the base flavor, providing a tremendous sweetness to your dough. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and fluffy.
-
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate this dry mixture into the creamed mixture. Blend until just combined, being careful not to overmix, as a tender crust is essential.
-
Spread the dough evenly across the prepared pizza pan. Ensure you create a uniform layer that reaches the edges for even baking, leading to a lovely cookie crust.
-
Bake your crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until it is lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely on a wire rack to set before frosting.
-
In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and lush. This frosting layer is a tremendous complement to the sweetness of the fruit.
-
Once the cookie crust has cooled completely, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the crust, being generous yet ensuring a smooth finish.
-
Top with your favorite fruit, arranging it creatively for an eye-catching presentation. The medley of colors and textures will truly make your fruit pizza stand out.
-
Chill in the refrigerator for a bit to set before slicing and serving. Enjoy your fruit pizza on warm, sunny days or whenever you crave a deliciously light dessert!
