Since we've been home so much lately, thank you COVID-19, we've been having fun with food, especially desserts lately. I decided that we needed to try to be healthy so of course personal fruit pizzas came to mind. I also had butter milk on hand that I wanted to use. This is so easy, fun, yummy, and it fit the bill perfectly! The cookies are the perfect size and sweetness, plus you don't have to make the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it. I halved the recipe and we still had enough cookies for the week.
What you'll need for the personal buttermilk cookies:
1 1/2 c. sugar
1 c. salted butter, room temp.
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 c. buttermilk
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. almond extract
4 1/2 -5 1/2 c. flour
Powdered sugar
What you'll do:
-Preheat oven to 400ยบ
-Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
-Cream sugar and butter in a stand mixer for 3 min. or until fluffy. Mix in the eggs. Add salt and baking powder and mix well. Add 1/4c. buttermilk, vanilla, almond extract and blend. Add 2 1/2 c. flour 1/2 c. at a time. Add the remaining 1/4 c. buttermilk. Then blend in the reaming flour. The batter should be smooth and elastic like. If the batter is too sticky add more flour.
-Sprinkle your rolling surface with powder sugar and roll the dough out until it is a 1/4 inch thick.
- Using a large mouth mason jar, cut out the cookies and transfer onto baking sheet.
-Bake for 10 min. Allow to cool then frost.
Frosting for personal fruit pizzas:
8 oz. cream cheese
13 oz. marshmallow cream fluff
-Mix ingredients together and frost cookies when ready to eat.
Making the fruit pizzas:
Top with cut up fruit like:
Apples
Blueberries
Strawberries
Raspberries
Blackberries
Bananas
Peaches
Can also drizzle with a bit of honey
This is a blog all about cooking and menu planning. So many parents out there that want to cook good food for their family, but just don't have the time to come up with a menu and grocery list and cook a good dinner. This blog has my menu and grocery list for the week on Monday, then each day you'll find the ingredients and recipes I used that day. If you get what you need from the grocery list, you should be covered for the week. I also let you know if the recipe was good or not. EnJoY!

Frozen Pizza
So for Thursday night's dinner we had a frozen pizza. I was running out of ideas for dinner this week and to tell you the truth, I just wanted a quick and easy dinner.
Just pull the pizza out of the freezer and follow the directions on the box.
Plate and enjoy!
P.S. I promise I'll be back with a good dinner Friday night.
