- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- For the Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 1 8 ounce package of cream cheese

- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a muffin top pan with cooking spray and set aside.
- 2. With a mixer, cream the butter and sugar together. Add the egg, lemon zest, and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
- 3. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt.
- 4. Add flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until just combined.
- 5. Press about 1/4 cup of cookie dough into muffin top pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until pizzas are slightly golden brown. Let the pizzas cool for 2-3 minutes in the pan. Remove to a wire cooling rack and cool completely.
- 6. While the cookies are cooling, make the frosting. Using a mixer, beat the cream cheese, sugars, lemon juice, and lemon zest together until smooth. Spread frosting over mini fruit pizzas.
- 7. Arrange fruit on each mini fruit pizza. Chill until ready to serve.
- Note-if you don't have a muffin top pan, you can make a large pizza by using a pizza pan. Feel free to use your favorite fruits-kiwi, mango, raspberries, mandarin oranges, peaches, and bananas are also great toppings!
