Cookie Crust Fruit Pizza

I have fruit and veggie pizzas on the mind. I woke up this morning craving them and have been having a jolly ole time cooking them up in the kitchen this morning.

Ingredients:
  • 1 package (16-18oz) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  • 8 oz softened cream cheese
  • 8 oz whip cream topping
  • 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
  • 4 sliced kiwi
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup water

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Slice cookie dough and arrange on greased pizza pan, overlapping edges. Press dough flat into pan. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool.
  3. In a large bowl, mix cream cheese and whip cream topping. When smooth, spread over cooled crust.
  4. Arrange fruit around pizza crust (I use strawberries, blueberries and kiwi because they all keep really well and look pretty together)
  5. In a saucepan, mix sugar, salt, corn starch, orange juice, lemon juice, vanilla extract and water. Cook and stir over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and cook for 1 or 2 minutes, until thickened. 
  6. Once sauce has cooled a little bit, spoon over the fruit
  7. Chill for two hours, then cut into pizza slices and serve.
