Easy Fruit Pizza

1 package Sugar Cookie Mix

8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

Enough bright, colorful fruit to cover your pizza. You can use fresh or frozen. Just thaw frozen fruit before you place on pizza.

Crust: Preheat oven to 350. Slightly grease the bottom of a pizza pan. Prepare sugar cookie mix as directed and spread evenly on the bottom of pizza pan. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes or until slightly brown around outside of crust. Cool completely.

Cream Cheese Layer: Beat cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar & vanilla until smooth & creamy. Spread on cooled cookie crust.

Fruit: Wash, dry & cut fruit as necessary. Arrange on top of cream cheese layer in a circle pattern, starting from the outside and going in.
