Fruit and pizza...two of my favorite things to eat. Why not combine them and enjoy a delicious and tasty dessert pizza. Fruit pizza is a great dessert because you can use whatever fruits you like and you can always change it each time you make it. Philadelphia cream cheese now comes in dark chocolate, white chocolate, and milk chocolate, so you can use that as the "sauce" on the fruit pizza if you don't want to use the basic cream cheese recipe I will post below.
