Ingredients

For the cream cheese frosting:

  • 1/2 cup butter softened to room temperature
  • 8 oz. cream cheese
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 4 cups powdered sugar

For the blueberry topping:

  • 2 tbsps. cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice

For the dessert pizza:

  • 1 store bought pizza dough brought to room temperature and cut into two pieces
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese frosting
  • 1 cup blueberry topping
  • Optional: powdered sugar slivered almonds, lemon zest, fresh chopped mint

Instructions

For the cream cheese frosting:

  • Beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth and combined.
  • Mix in the vanilla and gradually add in the powdered sugar until you've reached a thick, frosting consistency.
  • Store the frosting in the fridge until time to use.

For the blueberries:

  • In a saucepan, combine cornstarch, sugar, blueberries, and water. Cook over medium heat until mixture boils.
  • Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the lemon juice.
  • Allow the mixture to cool before use or store in the fridge.

For the dessert pizza:

  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  • Divide dough into two equal pieces. Stretch dough and brush each side with olive oil.
  • Place the dough on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the dough begins to bubble and you have grill marks on the bottom.
  • Flip the dough and continue cooking the other side. When the dough is fully cooked, remove from heat.
  • Spread each piece of dough with the cream cheese frosting. Then, top with the blueberry mixture.
  • Finish each pizza with powdered sugar, slivered almonds, lemon zest, or fresh chopped mint, if desired.
  • Then, cut the pizza into slices and serve immediately.

Notes

Store extra blueberry topping in a container in the fridge. Use it to top French toast or ice cream!
