Dessert Pizza

At our house, we like all things pizza. We had a dinnertime play-date once with some friends and their two boys. On the menu, several homemade gourmet pizzas, including this kid-approved dessert pizza.

This is an easy, kid-friendly recipe, as much fun to make as it is to eat.



Dessert Pizza





Ingredients:
  • sugar cookie dough, store-bought or made from scratch
  • whipped cream
  • fresh fruit
  • candy


Directions:
  1. Spray a 10-inch round pizza pan lightly with cooking spray.
  2. Pat out the sugar cookie dough to fit the pan.
  3. Bake at 350° for 16 -20 minutes until slightly golden on the edges
  4. Take it out and let it cool in the pan for at least an hour.
  5. Top with whipped cream. If you make it yourself you can experiment flavoring it with different kinds of extracts. I like coconut extract.
  6. Let the kids then top it with pieces of candy or fruit. My kids like maraschino cherries, mandarin orange segments, slices of banana and shredded coconut
  7. Eat and enjoy! Refrigerate any leftovers there might be and enjoy them for breakfast the next day.
