Strawberry Pizza

Serves: 15

CRUST: 

• 2 cups flour
• 1/2 lb margarine (2 sticks)
• 2 tbsp sugar

1. Mix together with a pastry blender or fork to form crumbs.
2. Press into the bottom of a 17 x 11 inch jelly roll pan.
3. Bake at 350˚F for 15 minutes.

FILLING: 

• 8 oz cream cheese
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 (8 oz) container whipped topping

1. Combine until smooth.
2. Spread over the cooled crust.

TOPPING: 

• 4 cups fresh sliced strawberries
• 1 container of strawberry glaze (purchase at the produce counter or a farm market) 

1. Combine strawberries with the glaze and spread evenly over the filling.
2. Chill in the refrigerator until firm—approximately one hour.

A note from Carolyn: This recipe is excellent with either strawberries, blueberries, or peaches. I find that it keeps fresh longer with blueberries. If you decide to go with blueberries or peaches, just purchase a matching glaze.
