Description

This Brownie Fruit Pizza is a delightful and visually stunning dessert combining a rich, fudgy brownie base with a creamy vanilla cream cheese topping and an assortment of fresh, colorful fruits. Perfect for parties or special occasions, it offers the perfect balance of indulgent chocolate and refreshing fruit flavors.


Ingredients

Brownie Base

  • 1 box brownie mix (plus eggs, oil, and water as directed on package)

Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruit Topping

  • 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1 kiwi, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup pineapple, chopped


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s at the right temperature for baking the brownie base evenly.
  2. Prepare Brownie Batter: Follow the directions on the brownie mix package, combining the mix with the required eggs, oil, and water until smooth.
  3. Spread Batter: Grease a 12-inch pizza pan or round baking dish, then spread the brownie batter evenly across the pan surface to create a uniform layer.
  4. Bake Brownie Base: Bake the brownie according to the time instructed on the box (approximately 20 minutes) or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let it cool completely before proceeding.
  5. Make Cream Cheese Frosting: In a bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until you achieve a smooth and creamy texture without lumps.
  6. Apply Frosting: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled brownie base, creating a luscious layer for the fruit topping to adhere to.
  7. Arrange Fruit: Decorate the top with mixed berries, kiwi slices, and chopped pineapple in any pattern you like, making it visually appealing.
  8. Serve: Slice the fruit pizza into 8 pieces and serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator until you’re ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Ensure the brownie base is completely cooled before spreading the cream cheese frosting to prevent it from melting.
  • You can substitute the fruit topping with your favorite seasonal fruits.
  • For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free brownie mix.
  • This dessert tastes best when served within 1-2 days of preparation.
  • Chilling the fruit pizza enhances the flavor and makes slicing easier.
