CARAMEL APPLE DESSERT PIZZA

My daughter was looking through an American Doll Magazine, and came across this yummy sounding recipe - although she doesn't yet have an American Doll, she desperately wants one and currently makes do with looking at the dolls and accessories on the internet and in catalogues.
I agreed to help her make the dessert pizza, and we whipped it up prior to a play date, so she could share it with her friends.

CARAMEL APPLE DESSERT PIZZA


1 roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons milk
 2 or 3 apples
lemon juice
caramel sauce

Press the sugar cookie dough into a greased 12 inch pizza pan or round baking tin.
Bake the dough in a 350F oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese, peanut butter, brown sugar, and milk until smooth. Use a spatula to spread the mixture on top of the cookie crust.
Cut the apples into thin slices. Toss the slices in lemon juice so that they don't turn brown. Arrange the apples on top of the cream cheese mixture.
Finish by drizzling caramel sauce over the apples. To serve, cut the pizza into wedges.
Enjoy!
