Recipe: Fruit Pizza

Sometimes, I want a dessert that is sweet and tastes like it’s healthy. Especially this time of year with all of the fresh fruit in the grocery stores and at farmers’ markets and farm stands.

This is a fun dessert to make with kids, you can let them help with the pizza! You can also pick your favorite fruits or the fruits that are in season. For this fruit pizza, I used grapes, bananas, apples, and strawberries. But it’s also delicious with raspberries, kiwi, star fruit, mango and more.

Ingredients

• Package of Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix (and items called for on package)
• Marzetti Cream Cheese Fruit Dip
• Your Favorite fruits (I used grapes, bananas, apples, and strawberries), chopped and diced
