Pizza... Made with Cookie Dough!

In light of the color changing leaves, I feel that I have to share with you a recipe that I make every single year. Because mmmm baby it really brings in the fall with flair. Its super easy, quick baking time, and really a fun activity for the kids.
So let me introduce to you... Tortilla Dessert Pizza!


I found this recipe online many many years ago. (Okay, not that many years ago. More like 4 or 5) You can mess with it to suit your own tastes!

Supplies:
~ whipped cream cheese
~ 5 (8 inch) flour tortillas
~ granulated sugar
~ ground cinnamon
~1 (16.5 ounce) package NESTLE® TOLL HOUSE® Refrigerated Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ~1 2/3 cups peeled and chopped banana
~1/3 cup chopped strawberries or raspberries or blueberries.. Whatever floats your boat!
~ 5 teaspoons chopped dry-roasted peanuts
~ 1/3 cup NESTLE® TOLL HOUSE® Premier White Morsels
~ creamy peanut butter (Yuuuuum!)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray three baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray. (I love Pam!) Spread some cream cheese to edge of tortilla. Combine sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of the mixture over the cream cheese. Cut bar of cookie dough into five sections. One at a time, cut each section into 16 pieces. Arrange dough pieces 1 inch apart over top of tortilla, leaving a 1-inch border around edge. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup banana, 1 tablespoon berries of your choice and 1 teaspoon peanuts. Repeat with remaining ingredients over remaining tortillas. Arrange two tortillas diagonally on a baking sheet.
Bake them for 17 to 19 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
Place white morsels and peanut butter in small, heavy-duty plastic bag. Microwave on Medium-High (70%) power for 30 seconds; knead. Microwave at additional 10- to 15-second intervals, kneading until smooth. Cut tiny corner from bag; squeeze to drizzle over pizzas. Cool completely, folks! Cut the pizzas into wedges using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
ENJOY the delishiousness! You won't find a yummier dessert pizza!


HAPPY FALL EVERYBODY!
