Fruit Pizza

This is the yummy fruit pizza we had at the reunion for Kammy's baby shower! I think Clint ate one whole pizza himself!!  

This is super delicious and always a crowd pleaser. One of my favorites! Refreshing for summertime when strawberries are in season. It is a precious recipe that I got from my Bishop’s wife while at BYU.

 

Crust: Sour Cream Cookie Crust

For 1 of my cookie sheet pans:                                                                for 2 cookie sheet pans:

1/2 c. butter softened                                                                                1 cup butter softened or shortening

1  c. sugar                                                                                                      2 cups sugar

2 eggs                                                                                                            3 eggs

¼  tsp. vanilla                                                                                                ½ tsp. vanilla

½ c. sour cream                                                                                           1 cup sour cream

2 ½ c. flour                                                                                                    5 cups flour

½ T. baking powder                                                                                     1 T. baking powder

¼ tsp baking soda                                                                                        ½ tsp baking soda

½  tsp salt                                                                                                      1 tsp salt

Directions: cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs, vanilla then sour cream. Mix together. Sift together dry ingredients and add little at a time. Dough is VERY sticky. Spread carefully onto greased and floured sheet pan. I use a frosting spreader spatula and it works good.

(This can also be Refrigerate it to make it into cookies.) 

Bake 350 ---11-12 minutes. Be very careful to not overcook, it will be too dry. The top will still look very white when done, not yet starting to turn golden.

*I make just one sheet pan normally, it feed a lot. And its best fresh before the fruit starts to mush.

The original recipe is on the right.

Topping:

12 oz cream cheese softened

1 ½ c. powdered sugar

Then fold in, 12 oz. Cool Whip

*I use this for just one sheet pan. Double for 2

Top with fruit of your choice: strawberries, peaches, raspberries, blueberries, kiwi, bananas, nectarines

*Refrigerate for a couple hours before serving. I like it cold. Best eaten before the fruit turns mushy. It won’t last long, its easily gobbled up! UMM!
