Corn Flakes Fruit Pizza
"I have never tried this with corn flakes, but it sounds GREAT. I have always used sugar cookie mix for a crust and it is too sweet, this sounds better though! If you use a lot of fresh colorful fruit (blueberries, raspberries, apples, peaches, kiwi, strawberries etc.) it looks beautiful."

Awesome crust!!! So much better than the sugar-cookie kind. I will be using it for icebox pies in the summer, too. This made such a beautiful and delicious dessert. Thanks, Dana, for sharing it. -
Got the goodies together and I'm making your recipe for out neighborhood meeting. I have served this in the past and it's a hit. The cornflake crust is the best! Hazelnut cinnamon coffee goes great with this recipe. Thanks!! -
This "pizza" was a major hit!! I made it for a dessert, and then thought how nice it would be for a really different breakfast. So, that's what I'll do next time. Everyone loved this! Very easy to put together. I topped it with kiwi, pineapple, fresh strawberries and coconut. Perfect crust, not overly sweet. It compliments the fruit nicely. Thanks Dana!! -
This is a review on the crust. (I had another cream cheese mix that I used) I did use Special K for the corn flakes but it worked GREAT! The girls that I cook for liked it way better than the usual cookie crust. This is now my go to recipe for fruit pizza crust. Thanks for putting it on Zaar for everyone! -
This is a family favorite. The crust is delicious. No one would guess that it is made with corn flakes. The cream cheese topping is reminiscent of cheesecake. The fresh fruit adds a beautiful and delightful touch.

I used the crust recipe and like another reviewer, used Special K since I didn't have cornflakes on hand. I also used honey instead of corn syrup. Also, I used a spring form pan to create the crust and it came out perfectly! I used another cream cheese recipe to make the pizza. I made this for a church meeting and left with an empty plate, it was a hit!!!

This was GREAT! I brought it to my Bible study group this morning and everyone enjoyed it. I made the crust the night before...actually made a 1 1/2 recipe of the crust since I wasn't sure if just 1 crust would cover my rectangular baking stone. This amount of crust worked out well. I used honey in place of the corn syrup and that worked very nicely. In the morning I made the cream cheese mixture...which I found slightly difficult to spread on the crust without the crust crumbling to bits...but I managed. I topped with bits of banana, kiwi, pineapple and mandarin oranges. YUMMY! Thanks for a great recipe that I plan to make again!

Took this to a friends barbeque, everyone really enjoyed it. I used 2 tbsp honey instead of the corn syrup ,I really liked the honey flavor of the crust. I used a buttered cup to further crush the cornflakes into the pan. I also buttered the pan itself to prevent the crust from sticking. I liked the fact that it was sweet but not overly sweet. Thanks for posting.
