This fruit pizza is my go to dessert whenever I want something that looks fancy but comes together in under an hour. The buttery shortbread crust paired with a creamy almond flavored cheese layer makes everyone think you spent all day in the kitchen, when really you didn't. What I love most is that you can use whatever fresh fruit you have on hand, and the natural vitamins and fiber in fresh berries make this feel like a treat that's actually good for you. Plus it's so economical compared to buying desserts from a bakery, and honestly, homemade always tastes better.
