Fruit Pizza II

Although there's already another fruit pizza recipe on here, I thought I'd post one I tried this last weekend. Love this dessert.

Fruit Pizza


  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup icing sugar
  • 1 cup cold butter
  • one package cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • various fruit

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

In large bowl, mix flour and icing sugar. Cut in butter until crumbly. Press into an ungreased 12 inch pizza pan. Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes or until very lightly browned. Cool.

In small mixing bowl beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Spread over crust. Arrange various fruit on top. I used strawberries, pineapple, kiwi, bananas, saskatoons and mandarin orange slices.

For glaze combine sugar and cornstarch. Stir in pineapple juice and lemon juice until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook for 2 minutes or until mixture thickens. Cool slightly. Drizzle over fruit. Refrigerate until chilled.

*I added a bit of whipped topping to the cream cheese mixture, to make it a more spreadable consistency.

Your fruit pizza was absolutley delicious Sonya! Definitely like the random placements of the fruit rather than the rows. So good
