Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1¼ cups flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- ⅔ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon instant vanilla pudding powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- assorted fresh fruit, according to taste
Method
- Heat the oven to 350°F before you mix the cookie crust.
- Beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together in a stand mixer until light and fluffy, then mix in the egg and the teaspoon of vanilla.
- Add the flour, baking powder and salt and mix for about 2 minutes, until a soft dough forms.
- Press the dough evenly into a 14-inch pizza pan, or roll it into a 14-inch circle on a cookie sheet, trimming the edges with a paring knife or leaving them rustic.
- Bake the crust for 12 to 15 minutes until lightly browned, then let it cool completely.
- Beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, pudding powder and vanilla extract together until smooth and light, and spread the frosting evenly over the cooled crust.
- Rinse the fresh fruit, let it drain completely, slice it as needed, and arrange it over the pizza in any pattern you like.
- Serve the fruit pizza straight away.
