Notes
- Let crust cool completely before adding frosting
- Use room temperature cream cheese for smooth frosting
- Pat fruit dry with paper towels before adding
- Do not overload toppings or slices get floppy
- Bake crust plain first before adding any toppings
- Best eaten same day — crust gets soft over time
- Store-bought pizza dough works great
- Any frosting works — cream cheese, vanilla, or whipped cream
- Kids love helping design and choose toppings
