US Customary - Metric

Equipment

Kitchen Scale (optional)
9-inch Springform Pan
Hand Mixer

Ingredients

For the Brownie Crust

18 ounces brownie mix (1 box), Ghirardelli recommended*
¼ cup water
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1 large egg

For the Frosting and Toppings

8 ounces cream cheese room temperature (1 brick)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1½ cups fresh mixed berries (I used strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries)
½ cup freshly sliced and peeled kiwi

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by spraying it with nonstick spray. Set aside
Prepare the brownies according to instructions on the back of the box. Spread the batter into the prepared springform pan and bake according to package directions. A little brownie mix might leak out while baking but it shouldn’t be much.
18 ounces brownie mix, ¼ cup water, ⅓ cup vegetable oil, 1 large egg
While the brownies bake, use a hand mixer to beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Beat until light and fluffy, about 5-7 minutes.
8 ounces cream cheese, 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, ¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Take the brownies out of the oven and set aside. Make sure the brownie is completely cooled before frosting.
Frost brownie pizza with cream cheese frosting and top with strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and raspberries.
1½ cups fresh mixed berries, ½ cup freshly sliced and peeled kiwi
Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving. Slice, plate and enjoy.

Notes

*Using a boxed mix saves me tons of time, but this recipe is also great with homemade brownies.

Tips:

Feel free to mix and match the types of fruit you use as decoration. The sky is the limit here
If you're making this brownie dessert for a 4th of July party, make it patriotic with just blueberries and strawberries!
I recommend beating the cream cheese mixture for 5-7 minutes so that it is nice and light and fluffy. When it's not beaten, it is pretty dense and heavy.
For an even lighter topping option, use whipped cream instead of the homemade cream cheese whipped frosting.
For an extra twist, drizzle some caramel sauce on top to serve (or give people the option to use it on their slice).

Storage: Store frosted pizza in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours. Store frosting and brownie crust separately in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Assemble and add fruit before serving.
