CHERRY CHEESE PIZZA
This dessert pizza is a great way to use cherries, my family likes it better than cherry pie. Each bite just melts in your mouth. People who sample it rave about this "sweet" pizza. When my neighbor tried a piece, she couldn't stop saying "Mmm..." the entire time she was eating.

[email protected]Overall, I thought this pizza was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland and the cheese didn't melt very well. I think I'll stick to my regular pizza recipe next time.
