To Do: Make


I want to make THIS featured over at Urban Grace Interiors today. Yummy!!

Mom's Fruit Pizza

(makes 2 pizzas)

Pizza Crust:

1/2 C. butter, softened

1/2 C. Crisco (butter flavor)

1-1/2 C. sugar

2 eggs

2-3/4 C. Flour

2 t. cream of tartar

1 t. baking soda

1/4 t. salt

Filling:

16 oz. cream cheese

1 C. sugar

2 t. milk

Assorted fresh fruit.  I used raspberries, strawberries, bananas, peaches, kiwi, and blueberries.  I tossed the bananas and the peaches in lemon juice to prevent oxidation (browning).

Pecans for top (optional).

Directions:

Cream butter and shortening together, add sugar.  Beat in eggs.  Stir in dry ingredients.  Grease 2 pizza pans (mine were 12").  (Refrigerating the dough prior to spreading makes it easier.) Spread dough on pizza pans and bake at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.  Cool completely.

Cream together all ingredients for filling and spread on cooled crusts. 

Top with fresh fruit and pecans.
