XXXX: Fruit Pizza

This is a recipe from my vegetarian cookery class I took senior year of high school. It came out delicious.

Crust:
2/3 c shortening
3/4 c sugar
1 t vanilla
1 egg
4 t milk
2 c sifted flour
1 1/2 t baking powder
1/4 t salt

Cream shortening, sugar and vanilla.
Add egg and milk.
Sift dry ingredients.
Blend into creamed mixture.
Press onto greased pan - bake 10-12 minutes at 375*.

Or... pick up a pillsbury sugar cookie dough and squish it into one large cookie and bake.

Spread:
1 8 oz cream cheese
1/2 c sugar
1 t vanilla

Mix well and spread onto cooled, baked cookie crust.

Arrange fruit (strawberries, banana slices, blueberries, raspberries, peach slices, cherries, mandarin oranges) on top of spread.

Glaze:
1 c sugar
1/2 c water
3 T cornstarch
1/2 real lemon juice
1 c orange juice

Mix and cook over med-high heat until boiling, stirring constantly. Boil 3 minutes or until thick. Let it cool and spread over fruit. Chill pizza until ready to serve.
