Make Your Own Pizza

This is a simple post, I just wanted to share what my daughter and I did the other day.  I thought it would be one of those fun ideas you can do when it's yucky outside.

We were having a difficult time deciding what we wanted to make for dinner.  Faith enjoys everything I make, and I know she loves to help, but a lot of the food I make involves sharp stuff, so she doesn't get to do a lot of helping.  I asked her if she wanted to make dinner, and she loved the idea.  So, we decided to pick up the Pillsbury Pizza Dough, some mozzarella cheese, pepperoni and pizza sauce.  We also used fresh tomatoes from the garden.

My daughter had a blast making the pizzas for everyone.  For her grandparents she made a pepperoni heart pizza and for her parents and brother she made a cheese heart pizza.

Here are some pictures of our fun!

Easy Fruit Desert

This desert idea is so simple and even if it wasn't, it looked so good I would've made it anyway.  This is  a Pinterest find, for more images click here.

Ingredients to make 24:

• One tube of pre made sugar cookie dough
• Either one large tub of whip cream, or two smaller sized
• strawberries
• kiwis
• cut peached fruit cups
• room temperature cream cheese

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  While you're waiting for the oven roll your cookie dough into balls and place in a cupcake tin.  I needed two tins for one tube of dough.  You will need to bake these for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden.

Take your room temperature cream cheese and mix until smooth.  Mix your whip cream in with the cream cheese and voila, your topping for your cookies are done!

Let the cookies cool for a bit, maybe ten minutes, then they should pop out fairly easily from the tin.

Get your fruit cut and ready while the cookies are cooling.

To easily add the whipped topping a put it all in a Ziploc bag and cut the corner off one side.

All you do now is arrange your fruit topping and enjoy.  Make sure you refrigerate whatever leftovers you have, if there are any!
