Fruit Pizza
Description
The cookie crust is made with basic baking ingredients including flour, sugar, butter, and eggs, resulting in a soft yet slightly crisp texture after baking. The crust is rolled and shaped into a large round, baked until golden, and cooled completely.
The cream cheese frosting is creamy and sweet, balancing the tart and juicy qualities of the fresh fruit arranged on top. The variety of fruits creates a colorful and fresh-tasting dessert with a mixture of sweet and tart flavors.
This fruit pizza is best served soon after assembly to maintain freshness, and the cookie crust can be stored separately to prevent sogginess. It works well as a dessert or snack during warm weather or gatherings.
To extend the freshness, the frosting and cookies can be stored up to 3 days refrigerated separately. Fresh fruit should be added shortly before serving to maintain texture.
Ingredients
Cookie crust
- 1½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ cup butter unsalted, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cream Cheese Frosting
- 8 ounce cream cheese
- ¼ cup butter unsalted (1/2 stick)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 cups powdered sugar
Toppings
- 10 strawberries sliced
- ½ cup blueberries
- ½ cup raspberry
- 2 kiwi sliced
- 1 peach sliced
Instructions
Cookie Crust
- Preheat oven to 375℉. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl mix together the all purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of your mixer add the sugar and butter and beat for a couple minutes until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla extract and continue mixing until the egg is fully incorporated. Add the flour and mix for an additional 2 minutes. Take the cookie dough and form it into a ball. Place it over the prepared baking sheet. Roll the ball into a round large cookie or any shape you prefer. You might need to add some more flour over your roll or over the cookie so that it doesn't stick.The cookie should be at least 1/4 of an inch in thickness.
- Bake the cookie for about 12 to 15 minutes or until edges are golden. Let it cool completely.
Cream Cheese Frosting
- Make the frosting by beating all the frosting ingredients in a mixer. Add more powdered sugar until you get the desired consistency. It should be thick enough to spread over the cookie.
Assemble Fruit Pizza
- Once the cookie is completely cooled slather it with the cream cheese frosting. I used about 2/3 of the frosting. Refrigerate the rest.
- Top with fruits and berries in your favorite pattern.
- You can slice the fruit pizza with a pizza cutter or a large knife. Serve and use leftover frosting for dipping.
Notes
- Store the cookie crust covered at room temperature for up to 3 days before assembling to avoid sogginess.
- Keep the cream cheese frosting refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Add fresh fruit toppings shortly before serving to preserve texture and prevent fruit from releasing too much moisture.
- For longer-lasting portions, consider making smaller individual fruit pizzas to assemble fresh as needed.
