Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (about 16 oz / 450 g) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon granulated sugar for sprinkling
  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened (full-fat recommended)
  • 1/3 cup (65 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream, chilled (can substitute with coconut cream for dairy-free)
  • 1 cup strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 kiwi, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup mandarin orange segments (fresh or canned, drained)
  • Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Press the refrigerated sugar cookie dough evenly into the bottom and about 1 inch (2.5 cm) up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan or pie dish. Smooth out with fingers or the back of a spoon. Sprinkle the top lightly with sugar if desired.
  2. Place the crust into the freezer for 15-20 minutes until firm but not frozen solid.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with granulated sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture with a rubber spatula, being careful not to deflate it, until light and fluffy.
  6. Remove the cookie crust from the freezer and spread the creamy topping evenly over the surface, smoothing to the edges.
  7. Arrange the prepared fruit over the topping in an appealing pattern. Add mint leaves for garnish if desired.
  8. Refrigerate the assembled fruit pizza for at least 1 hour to let the topping set and flavors meld.
  9. Slice with a sharp knife warmed under hot water and dried for cleaner cuts. Serve chilled.

Notes

Let cream cheese soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes to avoid lumps. Use chilled bowls and beaters for whipping cream to achieve stiff peaks. Press cookie dough gently but firmly and freeze crust before assembly to maintain structure. Slice fruit uniformly for a neat appearance. Serve chilled and store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Avoid freezing the dessert as texture may be compromised.
