Pizza for Wine Tasting

Cheese and fruit plates-uh, so 20th century. Impress your guests to this berry-bursting, cheese-oozing taste sensation on your favorite crust or flatbread. Or, surprise your honey with a bottle (or two!) of good wine, romantic movie, candles and this pizza and see what happens. Add grilled chicken or thinly sliced prosciutto and it's filling enough that you won't have to go out for dinner.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1 (10 inch)  thin pizza crust
• 6  ounces mascarpone cheese
• 4  ounces  brie cheese
• 2  tablespoons  caviar (optional)

• Balsamic Berry Sauce

• 1⁄2 cup cherries (fresh preferred but frozen O.K.)
• 1⁄2 cup blueberries (fresh preferred but frozen O.K.)
• 1⁄4 cup  strawberry preserves
• 2  tablespoons sugar
• 2  tablespoons  balsamic vinegar
• 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. Slice cherries in sixths, removing the pits, so they're roughly the same size as the blueberries. Mix together all berry sauce ingredients. Cut brie in thin quarter-inch pieces.
3. Spread mascarpone evenly across pizza crust (using your hands is easiest), then drizzle berry sauce evenly across the top, then place brie slices across the top, evenly-spaced.
4. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until crust starts to turn golden and brie is melted; sprinkle caviar across the top, if desired; cut in thin slivers and serve hot.
