Ingredients
  

For the Pizza
  • 1 piece pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
For the Cream Cheese Topping
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream
Optional Toppings
  • 1/2 cup fresh fruit (strawberries or blueberries) for a refreshing touch
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips for added sweetness

Method
 

Preparation
  1. If you’re using store-bought dough, preheat your oven according to the package instructions (usually around 425°F). If you’re making homemade dough, prep and roll it out into a circle on a floured surface.
  2. Place the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using your hands or a rolling pin, shape it into about a 12-inch circle.
  3. Brush the melted butter evenly over the dough. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the buttered dough.
Baking
  1. Place the dough in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the crust turns golden brown.
Topping Preparation
  1. While the pizza bakes, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
Assembly
  1. Once the pizza crust is done baking and has cooled slightly, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the pizza.
  2. Finish with whipped cream and any additional toppings you desire, such as fresh fruit or chocolate chips.
Serving
  1. Slice the pizza into wedges, serve immediately, and enjoy!

Notes

For an indulgent touch, drizzle with honey or chocolate syrup before serving. Use low-fat cream cheese for a lighter version. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
