Instructions:
Prepare Cookie Crust
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place parchment paper on baking sheet (11X9”)

• Drop dough onto baking sheet and spread out evenly
• Bake in oven for 12 to 14 minutes
• Remove from oven, set aside to cool
Cream Cheese Frosting
• Blend softened cream cheese, sugar, milk and lemon extract in medium bowl. TIP: If making with apples and pears, consider vanilla or maple syrup instead of lemon extract with a dash of cinnamon.
Construct Pizza
• Slice fresh fruit and set aside. Ensure fruit is clean and dry before assembly. For spring, use berries; for summer, use pineapple, strawberry, or peach; for autumn, use apples and pears.
• When crust is cool, spread cream cheese frosting evenly over cookie
• Place fruit – fruit placement can be random or in a design. Get creative!
• Refrigerate until ready to serve!
