In my family Fruit Pizza is a regular on the menu during the summer. How could you not? With all the fresh fruit available during the warmer months, fruit pizza is a great way use up fresh produce. Pillsbury's short cut for mini fruit pizzas is AWESOME! Who likes rolling out sugar cookie dough in hot weather? It never works - always sticks to the counter!! Beyond frustrating! Why not try pre-cut sugar cookie dough and make individual mini pizzas? My mother in-law stuck this adorable little cookbook for desserts into my Easter basket this year and its been chocked full of great short cuts for quick and easy desserts. Here's the recipe for Mini Fruit Pizzas.
1 package refrigerated sugar cookies (usually 24 cookies)
1 package cream cheese, softened (8 oz box)
2 TBS frozen limeade concentrate, thawed - (BTW if you've got a great recipe for a limeade drink please share, because you will have TONS of extra from this recipe)
1/2c. powdered sugar
Sliced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwi - or other favorite fresh fruits
1.) Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake cookies according package directions. Cool completely (about 10 minutes)
2.) Beat cream cheese, limeade concentrate and powdered sugar until smooth.
3.) Spread each cookie with approx 1 TBS cream cheese mixture. Arrange fruit on top of each "pizza" Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate up to 2 hours.
