It’s a Top 3 for me!
My mom and aunts are famous for many desserts and one they’ve made for decades that they are especially famous for is today’s fruit pizza (along with Homemade Cinnamon Rolls, Banana Bars, and our Cinnamon Bread Recipe)! I’ve always loved this dessert as a child, but now I’m obsessed and request it for Mother’s Day each year (and make it for every summer gathering). With it’s soft and tasty crust, light frosting and delicious fruit on top, it’s hard to beat. I can honestly say it’s one of my TOP 3 desserts on the whole site.
