Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oven to 400º.

Spread the dough in an ungreased 12-inch pizza pan. Brush on the butter and sprinkle on the 2 tablespoons of sugar. Bake the crust until it's golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool the crust on a wire rack.

In a medium-size bowl, combine the frosting ingredients with a rubber spatula. Stir until smooth.

Spread the frosting over the cooled crust. Gently press in the fruit. Serves 12.
