Here’s How to Make this sugar cookie fruit pizza
For the sugar cookie crust, cream together the sugar and butter together, then add in the vanilla and egg and mix until incorporated.
Then, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Combine well until thoroughly incorporated. The mixture should be smooth and creamy at this point.
Chill the dough for about 30 minutes.
Once the dough has been chilled, you can preheat the oven, and line an Rimless baking sheet or baking stone with parchment paper.
If your pan has edges, you can roll out your dough on the parchment sheet and then carefully transfer the dough to the pan.
Roll out the dough into a circle, or whatever shape you planned for. I rolled my fruit pizza into a 12 inch round. Be sure to measure your pan if you are rolling out the cookie on the counter to make sure it fits on your pan!
Bake for 12 minutes at 350°F. I rolled the dough to be about 1/4″ thick. If you have thicker dough, you may need additional time to bake. Additionally, if you prefer a firmer cookie, you will need additional time.
Allow the cookie to cool down completely before applying the cream cheese frosting.
To make the cream cheese frosting, cream together the cream cheese and butter.
Then, add in the the vanilla and confectioner’s sugar and mix together until smooth and creamy.
Spread into an even layer onto the cookie crust, and chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up a bit.
While the cookie is chilling you can slice your fruit into small pieces to arrange onto the fruit pizza.
Allow yourself to be as creative as you want when assembling your design.
Start arranging the design from the center outwards. You can measure out the cookie to find the center, or just eyeball it. If you find that you didn’t hit the center of the cookie, you can easily cut the cookie with a knife to clean it up.
How to store this fruit pizza cookie
Fruit pizza is best served the day it is made. You should store it covered and in the refrigerator when not being served. It should last up to 3 days in the fridge, but the crust will start to get soggy and soft, and the fruit will not be as fresh.
