Danelle's Fruit Pizza


So this recipe (and picture) is totally stolen from Danelle. This photo is of her creation and her hand. I swiped it from her blog. I asked her for the recipe, and here it is, word for word, from the e-mail she sent me:


This is how I make it: I buy one of the pouches of Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie mix and blend it like the directions say, then I smear that into a sheet cake pan and bake it. While it's baking I mix 1 small tub of Cool Whip with 1 package of cream cheese, blend those together and add about 1/4 cup of confectioner sugar. While the sugar cookie is cooling I cut up all the fruit I want to enjoy. Bananas are really yummy on it, but they brown so easily, so I just cut them and add them onto individual pieces when I actually serve it. Stay away from anything too JUICY, because it sometimes makes the cookie soggy...mandarine oranges are about as wet as you can go...no pineapple unless you're eating it quickly. Frost the cooled cookie and apply fruit. It is delish! Enjoy. I've actually seen individual sugar cookies done at parties, cute, but more time consuming.
Thanks Danelle!

Crescent Roll Cheesecake (stolen from Leslie Wojcik)

Crescent Roll Cheesecake

2 packages crescent rolls (DO NOT SEPARATE ROLLS)
2 eight oz. packages cream cheese
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg, separated
¾ C. sugar
1 tsp. lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350. Place one package of rolls on the bottom of a greased 13”x9” pan. Soften cream cheese, mix with vanilla, egg yolk, sugar and lemon juice. Stir until smooth. Pour into 13x9 pan. Place the remaining package of rolls on the top of the cream cheese mixture. Brush egg whites on the top. Bake at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

I got this recipe from Leslie clear back in the olden days when she served as one of my Young Women leaders. Thanks Leslie.
