Prepare the Cookie Base:
Preheat your oven according to the sugar cookie dough package instructions or your homemade dough recipe. Roll out the dough and cut into medium-sized circles. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Let them cool completely. -
Make the Cream Cheese Frosting:
Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth and fluffy. Adjust the sweetness by adding extra powdered sugar, if desired. -
Assemble the Pizzas:
Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese frosting over each cooled cookie. -
Add the Fruit:
Slice your fresh fruit into bite-sized pieces and arrange them on top of the frosting, creating colorful patterns or “egg” shapes. Get creative with the designs! -
Chill and Serve:
Chill the assembled pizzas in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving to help set the frosting.
Notes
- Use fresh, in-season fruit for the best flavor and color variety.
- Make mini versions by cutting the dough into smaller circles if serving a crowd.
- For a more fun and vibrant look, add fruits like mango or dragon fruit.
