Fruit Pizza (Two Ways!)
Fruit Pizza is a fantastic dessert that packs a ton of flavor. I am so excited to share two very different ways to enjoy it with a beautiful Rainbow Fruit Pizza and Honey Glazed Fruit Pizza.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
Sugar Cookie Crust for Rainbow Fruit Pizza
- ½ cup (1 stick or 113g) unsalted butter
- ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
Cream Cheese Spread
- 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 8 oz whipped topping
- ¼ cup confectioner's sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Fruit for Rainbow Fruit Pizza
- 2 cup strawberries, rinsed
- 3 or 4 clementine's
- 3 or 4 kiwis
- 1 cup blueberries, rinsed
- 1 cup blackberries, rinsed
Instructions
Sugar Cookie for Honey Fruit Pizza
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer (or hand-held mixer) cream butter and sugar until smooth, about 3 minutes.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Turn the mixer off and add in the baking powder and flour. Mix on medium-low until the ingredients are incorporated. The dough will be very firm.
- Turn out the dough onto a pizza pan (or round cookie sheet) that has been lined with parchment paper.
- Add another piece of parchment over the dough and roll to about ½ inch thickness using a rolling pin.
- Try to maintain a circle shape with the dough.
- Bake for 8-12 minutes. (Baking times may vary, just make sure the edges do not burn.) Let cool completely before frosting.
Cream Cheese Spread
- In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, confectioners sugar, and vanilla extract. When the cream cheese mixture is smooth, fold in the whipped topping by hand.
- Smooth over the cooled sugar cookie as evenly as possible. (A small offset spatula works great for this.)
Fruit for Honey Fruit Pizza
- Cut the fruit based on the Fruit Pizza style you choose. (Instructions for Rainbow Fruit Pizza and Honey Glazed Fruit Pizza above.)
