Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) . Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
2. Shape the Cookie Dough
Unroll the sugar cookie dough and divide it into small portions. Shape each portion into an oval or egg shape, about 1/4 inch thick, directly onto the prepared baking sheets. Ensure there’s space between each cookie for spreading.
3. Bake the Cookie Bases
Bake the shaped cookies in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes , or until lightly golden around the edges. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheets.
Pro Tip: Cool cookies completely before frosting to prevent melting.
4. Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating continuously until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract for added aroma.
5. Assemble the Pizzas
Once the cookies have cooled, spread a generous layer of cream cheese frosting onto each one using a spatula or knife. Be creative with the design—if desired, pipe borders or swirls for decoration.
6. Add the Fruity Toppings
Arrange your favorite fresh fruits on top of the frosted cookies to resemble colorful Easter eggs. Use slices of strawberries for red, blueberries for blue, kiwi for green, and mango for yellow. Get creative with patterns and designs!
Optional: Sprinkle crushed candy eggs or sprinkles over the frosting before adding fruits for extra flair.
7. Chill and Serve
Refrigerate the assembled fruit pizzas for 10–15 minutes to firm up the frosting and keep the fruits fresh. Slice into wedges if desired and serve immediately.
Tips for Success
- Use Fresh Fruits : Bright, juicy fruits enhance both the flavor and appearance of the pizzas.
- Don’t Overload the Frosting : Leave enough room for the cookies to hold their shape without becoming soggy.
- Make It Ahead : Prepare the cookie bases and frosting up to a day in advance; assemble just before serving.
- Get Creative : Use food coloring in the frosting to match Easter hues or experiment with different fruit combinations.
