Ingredients
  

1 pre-made sugar cookie dough (or homemade if preferred)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup whipped topping (or whipped cream)

1 cup strawberries, sliced

1 cup blueberries

1 cup kiwi, peeled and sliced

1 cup mandarin oranges, drained

1/4 cup apricot preserves (optional, for glaze)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a round pizza pan or baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.

    Bake the Cookie Base: Roll out the sugar cookie dough on the prepared pan to form a large circle (about 1/4-inch thick). Bake according to package instructions or until the edge is lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely on a wire rack.

      Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting: In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until creamy. Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined.

        Assemble the Fruit Pizza: Once the cookie base has cooled, spread an even layer of the cream cheese frosting over the top. Make sure to cover the entire surface for an even flavor.

          Arrange the Fruit: Artistically arrange the strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and mandarin oranges on top of the cream cheese layer. You can create patterns or keep it casual—whichever you prefer!

            Add the Glaze (Optional): If desired, warm the apricot preserves in a small saucepan until just melted. Drizzle it over the arranged fruit to add a beautiful shine and extra sweetness.

              Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, chill the assembled fruit pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired before serving.
