Take sliced fruit and decoratively layer in a circular

OPTIONS: Make cookies as you normally would and create mini pizzas for a fun kid’s treat. Try gingerbread, carrot cake or banana bread instead of cookie base. You can replace cream cheese with organic yogurt.
This is one fun recipe! And what a hit it is with kids and adults. When you place it in front of anyone, their eyes pop with anticipation. Let your kids decorate the top with the fruit of their choice. The possibilities are endless.
