Ingredients
Scale
Fruit Base:
- 1 package sugar cookie dough (homemade or store-bought)
Cream Cheese Topping:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fresh Fruits:
- 1 cup strawberries
- 1/2 cup kiwi
- 1/2 cup blueberries
Instructions
- Warm the oven to the specified temperature and craft the sugar cookie base according to package guidelines, ensuring a golden, crisp foundation.
- Allow the cookie crust to cool completely to room temperature, preventing frosting from melting.
- Whip the cream cheese mixture until silky smooth, blending the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract into a luxurious spreadable layer.
- Gently distribute the cream cheese frosting across the cooled cookie surface, creating an even, creamy canvas.
- Meticulously slice fresh fruits into thin, artistic pieces, selecting a vibrant color palette for maximum visual appeal.
- Artfully arrange the fruit slices atop the frosted base, creating an intricate and colorful mosaic pattern.
- Refrigerate the fruit pizza for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and frosting to set firmly.
- When ready to serve, slice the chilled dessert into triangular wedges, mimicking a traditional pizza presentation.
Notes
- Choose a sugar cookie base that’s sturdy yet tender, ensuring it holds toppings without crumbling when sliced.
- Beat frosting ingredients until ultra-smooth to prevent lumpy texture, using room temperature cream cheese for easier mixing.
- Select ripe, seasonal fruits at peak ripeness for maximum sweetness and vibrant color presentation.
- Refrigerate fruit pizza for at least one hour before serving to allow flavors to meld and frosting to set perfectly.
