Fruit Pizza

I brought this over to a friend's house for dessert, and her whole family loved it, so she requested I post the recipe. It is not the healthiest dessert in the world, but it is awfully good!!

CRUST:
½ C powdered sugar
¾ C butter, softened
1 ½ C flour

FIRST LAYER:
1-8 oz package cream cheese, softened
½ C sugar
1 tsp vanilla

SECOND LAYER:
Any fruit combination of your choice (i.e. strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, kiwi, grapes, oranges, bananas, peaches, blueberries, pineapple, plums, etc)

GLAZE:
2 ½ T cornstarch
1 C fruit or pineapple juice (or juice from any canned fruit that you use-I used the juice from mandarin oranges)
¾ C sugar
1 tsp lemon juice

For crust: Mix powdered sugar, butter and flour. Pat in bottom of greased pizza pan or jelly roll pan (It will seem like there is barely enough, and the crust layer is thin). Bake at 300 degrees for 10-15 minutes, no longer. Cool. Make glaze next: heat all ingredients to a boil; cook until slightly thickened. Cool. While waiting for crust and glaze to cool, make first and second layers. For first layer, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Get fruit ready-washed and cut. Spread cream cheese mixture over cooled crust. Arrange any amount or combination of fruit on top of cream cheese mixture. Pour cooled glaze over pizza.
