Description

This whimsical strawberry pizza features a sweet dough that's topped with sweetened cream cheese and sliced berries and finished with a tasty custard.

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
2 1/2 cups strawberries, sliced
1/2 (2 ounce) package strawberry Danish dessert mix (e.g. Junket)
1 cup water

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Mix flour and confectioners' sugar together in a medium bowl. Stir in melted butter. Press mixture evenly into a 12-inch pizza pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Allow to cool.
4 While the crust is cooling, beat cream cheese and white sugar in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.
5 Spread cream cheese mixture over cooled crust, then arrange strawberries over top.
6 Combine custard dessert mix and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil while stirring frequently. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Pour mixture over strawberry layer. Chill before serving, about 1 hour.
