MckLinky Blog Hop - Favorite Recipe

I was excited to hear that this week's blog hop involved a favorite recipe. I LOVE to cook and I'm always looking for new recipes to try!

The recipe I'm sharing is for a quick, easy summer dessert...Dessert Pizza! Please disregard the shadows on my picture. Note to self: take pictures of food items yourself instead of asking dear husband to do it for you! At least he took the picture, right?!?!?


If you haven't made it before, Dessert Pizza isn't terribly hard to make. The most time consuming part is cutting the fruit.

* Roll out one tube of sugar cookie dough onto a cookie sheet (I love using my Pampered Chef pizza stone)

*Bake the dough as directed on the package

* Allow cookie to cool completely

* Mix together 16 oz cream cheese (softened), 1/4 cup of sour cream, 1 tsp vanilla, and 3 Tbsp powdered sugar and spread mixture over cooled cookie

*Spread strawberry or raspberry preserves over that (I usually use about 3-5 tablespoons...just enough to cover it lightly)

* Cover with seasonal fruit of your choice

I hope that your family enjoys this recipe as much as mine does!

Shadow aside, this looks VERY yummy. I've had it once before and never knew what it was called or had a recipe for it. Now I do. Thanks for sharing!

{Giggle} at your photographer :) I don't let my husband near my camera if I can help it.

That looks sooo good! I haven't had dessert pizza in so long. I never thought to use my baking stone. I'm getting sooo hungry looking at all these recipes.
