The finished dish — looks amazing, right?

Okay, so let’s get down to the good stuff!

Okay, Let’s Talk Ingredients

So, picture this: you’re at the grocery store, and you’re just trying to grab a few things without getting distracted by all the snacks. You need:

– A pre-made pizza crust (I know, I know, but hear me out—it saves time!)
– 1 cup of cream cheese (make sure it’s softened, or else it’ll be a total pain to mix)
– 1/4 cup powdered sugar (sweetness overload, yes please!)
– 1 tsp vanilla extract (the good stuff—alcohol-free if you’re feeling fancy)
– 1 cup sliced strawberries (fresh, juicy ones!)
– 1 cup sliced kiwi (they’re like little green jewels, right?)
– 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional, but totally worth it if you’re into that texture!)
– Some fresh mint leaves for garnish (because everything looks fancier with mint, am I right?)

So Here’s Why I Make This Constantly

Okay, real talk: this Kiwi Strawberry Pizza is basically my go-to for summer BBQs, birthday parties, and even just a regular Tuesday night when I feel fancy. The first time I made it, I was trying to impress a friend who said, “You can’t just have regular pizza—mix it up!” So, I thought, why not? I mean, who doesn’t like pizza, right?

So I whipped it up, and as I was snapping pics for Instagram (obviously), my dog, Charlie, jumped up and snagged a piece of kiwi off the counter. 😱 I panicked, but then my friend was like, “Ugh, even Charlie knows this is good!” And I was like, “You’re right! If a dog approves, I’ve nailed it!”

Just as gorgeous from this angle too!

The One Trick That Changes Everything

Listen up! The secret to making this pizza *pop* is to let that cream cheese mixture get *really* creamy before you spread it on the crust. Like, mix it until it’s smooth as a baby’s bottom! It’ll make a way better base for all those fruity toppings. Seriously, don’t skip this step!

Don’t Mess This Up (My Top Tips)

1. Check that crust: Bake it just until golden. Like 12-15 minutes usually? But start checking around 10. Trust me, I’ve burned my fair share of crusts!
2. Cool it completely: If you rush this, the cream cheese will melt and slide off like it’s had too much to drink. Not a cute look.
3. Slice it pretty: When you cut it, use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter—nobody wants a messy slice falling apart.
4. Don’t skip the mint: It’s optional, but it adds this freshness that just makes everything *zing*!

How to Keep Them From Disappearing (Or, How to Store Them)

Okay, so here’s the thing—this pizza is best eaten fresh because who can resist that? But if you have leftovers (doesn’t happen often, haha), pop it in an airtight container and stick it in the fridge. It’ll be good for a couple of days, but I promise, it won’t last that long!

If You Liked This, You’ll Probably Like These Too

So, if you’re digging this vibe, you’ll probably love my no-bake cheesecake cups (they’re ridiculously easy and creamy) or maybe my fruit salad with a drizzle of honey and lime. Both are total crowd-pleasers!

So, tell me—what’s your favorite summer dessert? I’m always on the lookout for new yummy ideas! 🍓🥝💖
