Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Base

  • 1 package sugar cookie dough (any brand, e.g., Pillsbury)

Frosting

  • 1 stick cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup marshmallow cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Fruit Toppings

  • Strawberries, chopped
  • Blueberries
  • Oranges, peeled and sectioned
  • Raspberries
  • Kiwi, peeled and sliced

Instructions

  1. Bake the Sugar Cookie Base: Preheat your oven according to the sugar cookie dough package instructions. Place the cookie dough on a baking sheet and bake as directed. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely to room temperature before frosting.
  2. Prepare the Creamy Frosting: In a stand mixer bowl, combine softened cream cheese, softened butter, marshmallow cream, powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Beat everything together until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well combined, ensuring there are no lumps.
  3. Assemble the Fruit Pizza: Spread an even layer of the prepared frosting over the cooled sugar cookies. Next, chop and arrange the fresh fruit toppings—strawberries, blueberries, oranges, raspberries, and kiwi—on top of the frosting as desired, creating a colorful and appetizing presentation.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Once assembled, serve immediately or refrigerate briefly to chill. This dessert is best enjoyed fresh to appreciate the balance of creamy frosting and fresh fruit flavors.

Notes

  • You can use any brand of sugar cookie dough; Pillsbury is a popular choice.
  • Ensure the cookies are completely cooled before frosting to prevent melting.
  • Feel free to customize the fruit toppings based on seasonal availability and personal preference.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute cream cheese and butter with suitable alternatives.
  • This dessert is best served fresh but can be refrigerated for a few hours to chill if desired.
