Kimber's Korner: Mini Fruit Pizza

Have ya missed me? Well I have missed you! I'm back to share with you a yummy, sweet treat treat called Mini Fruit Pizzas. My mom's friend Paula makes a great, big fruit pizza out of cookie dough and that is the recipe that inspired us (Paula's Fruit Pizza). We are making pretty much the same thing, only these are fruit pizzas that are more my size; mini. Mom has us using a lighter cream cheese and left off the marmalade. We had tons of fun making these little pizzas and I am sure you will too. Check out how Mom and I worked together to create these Mini Fruit Pizzas!




MINI FRUIT PIZZAS
Makes 24 (or 12 servings)

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 package of Pillsbury pre-cut sugar cookies (24 cookies)
  • 1 8-ounce block FAT FREE Philadelphia Cream Cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 3 cups fresh fruit (sliced bananas & strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, etc)
  • 1/2 cup orange marmalade (Optional)
DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place cookie dough pieces on a prepared baking sheet (12-16 at a time). Bake 8 to 15 minutes or until firm. Cool completely. Mix together cream cheese and extract. Spread cream cheese mixture over cooled cookies. Arrange fruit in an way on top of each "mini pizza". If desired, lightly warm marmalade and brush over fruit.  We skipped this part with most of ours. You really don't need it! Serve immediately.

Enjoy!
