Ingredients
- For the cookie crust:
- 1 package sugar cookie dough (or homemade sugar cookie dough)
- For the frosting:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (whipped into stiff peaks)
- For the fruit topping:
- Fresh strawberries, sliced
- Fresh kiwi, peeled and sliced
- Fresh blueberries
- Fresh pineapple, cubed
- Fresh grapes, halved
Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Base:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Roll out the sugar cookie dough onto a lightly greased pizza pan or baking sheet. Press the dough evenly to form a circular crust.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Make the Frosting:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
- Gently fold in the whipped heavy cream to create a fluffy, light frosting.
- Assemble the Fruit Pizza:
- Once the cookie base has cooled, spread a generous layer of the frosting over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Arrange the sliced fruits on top of the frosting in a decorative pattern, creating a colorful, vibrant design.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Slice into wedges and serve immediately. Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 2 days.
Notes
- Feel free to mix and match fruits based on what’s in season or your favorites.
- For a different flavor, you can add a splash of almond extract to the frosting for a twist.
- If you want a crispier base, bake the cookie crust a bit longer until golden and firm.
