Make a fast and fun fruit pizza using refrigerated sugar cookie dough for the base 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 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
  • 4 cups mixed fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, mandarin oranges recommended)

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 dough evenly onto the prepared pan to form a large, round sugar cookie crust.
  3. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the cookie crust cool completely on the pan.
  4. While the crust cools, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
  5. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully combined and creamy. If using, mix in the lemon zest.
  6. Once the cookie crust is 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 cover the surface.
  8. Chill the fruit pizza for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For mini fruit pizza versions, press small amounts of dough onto a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, then frost and top individual cookies.
  • To make the fruit topping shine, you can lightly brush the fruit with a thin layer of thinned apricot jam after arranging it.
  • If you prefer a thicker frosting, add a tablespoon more powdered sugar.
