Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Crust:
- 1 package of sugar cookie dough
Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Fresh Fruits:
- 1 cup strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup kiwis, sliced
- 1 cup blueberries
Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Crust: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the cookie dough ingredients and mix until well blended. Spread the dough onto a pizza pan or baking sheet, forming a round shape. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely.
- Make the Cream Cheese Frosting: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no lumps for that perfect texture.
- Assemble the Pizza: Once the cookie crust has cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top. This creamy layer creates a delicious base for your fruits.
- Add Fresh Fruits: Carefully arrange your chosen fresh fruits on top of the frosting. Get creative with your placements to make it visually appealing!
- Chill and Serve: Place the assembled Fruit Pizza in the refrigerator for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled and enjoy the delightful burst of flavors.
Notes
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Opt for the freshest fruits available to enhance the flavor and presentation.
- Let the Crust Cool: Ensure the cookie crust is completely cooled before adding the frosting to prevent it from melting.
- Experiment with Fruits: Feel free to mix and match your favorite fruits for a personal touch.
- Chill Before Serving: Chilling not only improves the taste but also helps the pizza hold its shape.
- Perfect for Leftovers: If you have any leftover Fruit Pizza, it can be a refreshing snack the next day!
