Ingredients

  • Crust:
  • 1 ½ sticks of butter softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • Filling:
  • 1 8 oz. cream cheese room temperature
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla

  • 1 ½ Tbsp. cornstarch
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 cup pineapple juice

Instructions

Crust:

  • In mixing bowl, combine butter and powdered sugar & slowly add flour. Mix until large crumbs form and stick together easily when squeezed together.
  • Grease pan lightly with butter and place piece of parchment paper on top. Pat crust into pan to edge. Bake in 325 degree oven for 10-15 minutes. Cool completely.

Filling:

  • In mixing bowl, combine room temperature cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Mix on medium for 2-3 minutes until light and creamy. Be sure to scrape down sides.
  • Spread filling onto cooled crust, leaving ½ inch border of crust around the edge.
  • Choose the fruit you want to use. Slice whole fruits such as kiwis, strawberries and peaches in thin slices. Layer fruit on top of filling.

Glaze:

  • In small saucepan, cook sugar, cornstarch, pineapple & lemon juices until transparent. Cool completely. Drizzle over fruit (you may not need to use the whole pan) and chill.
