Make a quick and colorful fruit pizza using refrigerated sugar cookie dough and a simple cream cheese frosting. This is an easy fruit dessert perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (16.5 ounces) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 4 cups mixed fresh fruit (such as strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and mandarin oranges)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 12-inch pizza pan or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Press the refrigerated sugar cookie dough evenly onto the prepared pan or sheet to form a large cookie crust.
  3. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the sugar cookie crust cool completely on the pan.
  4. While the crust cools, prepare the cream cheese fruit pizza frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Add the milk, one tablespoon at a time, beating until the frosting is light and spreadable.
  6. Once the cookie crust is completely cool, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top, leaving a small border for the crust edge.
  7. Arrange your mixed fresh fruit decoratively over the frosting. You can create patterns or simply scatter the fruit for a colorful look.
  8. Chill the fruit pizza for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For mini fruit pizza versions, press small rounds of dough onto a baking sheet and bake according to package directions, then frost and top individually.
  • Pat any very wet fruit, like sliced strawberries, lightly with a paper towel before placing them on the frosting to prevent the crust from getting soggy.
  • If you want a slightly tangier frosting, add 1 teaspoon of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture.
