Apple Pizza

This was one of those OH MY! desserts, a MUST keep recipe and one that will forsure make it into my next family cookbook/scrapbook. I started the recipe with a little help from another recipe and then I wanted to incorporate the awesome product I received from Ducan Hines and Comstock Fruit Fillings and the recipe just came to me, just like that (as I was baking/making it). I served it too all my girlfriends and they loved it too.

Apple Pizza
original idea came from a Pampered Chef recipe; all ideas below are mine

1 pkg refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1 pkg cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup peanut butter (we use chunky, cuz it's what we like)
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 can apple pie filling

for crumb topping
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 tbsp butter
1/2 cup peanuts, chopped

Vanilla Glaze Topping, made by Ducan Hines

Preheat oven to 350. Shape cookie dough into a ball and then roll out into a circle on a pizza pan. Bake 16-18 minutes of until light golden brown. Remove from oven and cool for 10 minutes.

Combine cream cheese, brown sugar, peanut butter and vanilla in a small bowl. Spread mixture over pizza. Open can of Comstock Wilderness Apple Pie filling and spread ontop of the peanut butter mixture and then top with the crumb topping. To make the crumb topping mix flour, sugar, butter and peanuts with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle this on top and then return to oven and bake until apples are bubbly about 15 minutes.

Cool for a few minutes before adding the vanilla glaze topping. Cut into wedges & Serve warm!
