Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, cream together 3/4 cup softened unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 tsp vanilla extract until combined.
- Step 2: In a separate bowl, whisk 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour with 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Step 3: Press dough evenly into a greased 12-inch pizza pan, creating a slight edge. Bake for 15-18 minutes until edges are golden and center is set. Cool completely on a wire rack.
- Step 4: For the glaze, beat 8 oz softened cream cheese with 1 cup powdered sugar and 2 tbsp milk until smooth and spreadable.
- Step 5: Spread the cream cheese glaze evenly over the cooled crust. Arrange 1 cup sliced strawberries, 1 cup sliced kiwi, 1/2 cup blueberries, and 1/2 cup mandarin orange segments decoratively on top.
- Step 6: Chill for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving to allow the glaze to set.
