Ingredients
  

Mini Patriotic Fruit Pizzas
  • 1 tube refrigerated sugar cookie dough Use 1 tube; slice into 1/2-inch rounds.
  • 8 oz cream cheese Soften before frosting.
  • 0.5 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries Thinly slice.
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 0.5 cup fresh raspberries
  • 2 tbsp apricot jam Optional glaze.
  • 1 tbsp water Optional glaze; used to thin jam.

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Prep and bake the cookie bases
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F, then slice the refrigerated sugar cookie dough into 1/2-inch rounds and place them on a parchment-lined sheet pan.
  2. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centers still look slightly underdone, then cool completely.
Make cream cheese frosting
  1. Beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until completely smooth.
Assemble and decorate mini fruit pizzas
  1. Spread a generous layer of cream cheese frosting over each cooled cookie, leaving a small border.
  2. Decorate each mini pizza with strawberry slices, blueberries, and raspberries in a flag stripe pattern, star shape, or scattered design.
  3. If desired, brush the fruit lightly with warmed apricot jam mixed with water for a glossy finish, then refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

For the neatest mini pizzas, cool the cookie rounds fully before frosting so the frosting stays thick and doesn’t melt. Refrigerate leftovers in a single layer in an airtight container for up to 2 days; freezing is not recommended because the fruit texture softens. If you want a lighter dessert, use reduced-fat cream cheese while keeping the frosting thickness consistent.
