Ingredients
  

1 pre-made sugar cookie dough (16 oz)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup whipped cream (or Cool Whip)

1 cup strawberries, sliced

1 cup blueberries

1 cup kiwi, peeled and sliced

1 cup peaches, diced

Optional: mint leaves for garnish

Drizzle of honey or agave syrup (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Cookie Base: Roll out the pre-made sugar cookie dough on a lightly floured surface into a large circle, about 12 inches in diameter. Place it on a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

      Bake the Cookie Crust: Bake the cookie dough in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. Once done, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.

        Make the Cream Cheese Spread: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Fold in the whipped cream until well combined.

          Assemble the Pizza: Once the cookie base is fully cooled, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly across the surface.

            Add the Fruits: Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and diced peaches artistically on top of the cream cheese spread. Feel free to create patterns or clusters based on your preference.

              Garnish and Serve: If desired, add fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness. Drizzle lightly with honey or agave syrup for added sweetness.

                Chill and Enjoy: For the best flavor, refrigerate the fruit pizza for about 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Slice and serve chilled.
