Tools You’ll Need

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Brownie Base
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C)
Grease and line a round pizza or tart pan with parchment paper
In a bowl, prepare brownie batter (either box mix or homemade)
Spread evenly into the pan and bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs
Let cool completely before frosting

Step 2: Make the Frosting
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth
Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and mix until light and fluffy
Chill for 10–15 minutes if frosting is too soft

Step 3: Frost the Brownie
Once brownie base is fully cooled, spread frosting evenly over the top
Leave a slight border around the edges for a clean look

Step 4: Decorate with Fruit
Arrange sliced fruit in a circular or decorative pattern on top of the frosting
Press lightly so they stick without sinking into the frosting
Add mint leaves for a pop of green and freshness if desired

Step 5: Slice and Serve
Use a sharp knife to cut into wedges like a pizza
Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes for a firmer texture

Tips for Best Results
Cool Completely – Don’t rush frosting or decorating the brownie base
Pat Fruit Dry – Excess moisture can make the frosting runny
Plan the Design – Lay out fruit patterns ahead of time for even spacing
Chill Before Serving – Makes slicing easier and neater
Use Seasonal Fruit – Adds variety and freshness

Serving Suggestions
With Whipped Cream – Adds extra creaminess to each bite
Drizzle with Chocolate Sauce – For added decadence
Pair with Iced Coffee or Lemonade – A refreshing finish
Serve at Brunch or Potlucks – Easy to transport and always a hit
