1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 - 8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In large bowl, cream together the butter and 3/4 cup sugar until smooth. Mix in egg. Combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until just blended. Press dough into an ungreased pizza pan. ** The dough is kind of a pain to work with because it is sticky. The easiest way I found is to roll it with parchment paper on the top and bottom instead of using the rolling pin on the dough. When you take off the top paper to bake it the dough is super thin and you have to use a butter knife to pull it off the paper. It looks terrible but I promise that a super thin, weird looking dough cooks into a perfect cookie. Bake it directly on the parchment paper and remove it after it has cooled a little.
Bake in preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool. ** Mine takes about 12 minutes but be careful not to overbake or it will be be crispy instead of soft.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese with 1/2 cup sugar and vanilla until light. Spread on cooled crust.
Arrange desired fruit on top of filling and chill. ** Don't put fruit on until right before serving or the crust will go soggy.
It is fun to google pictures of the fruit pizza to see different ways to decorate it. Lots of fruits are optional.
