Description
Create a colorful fruit pizza inspired by the flag theme. This festive treat combines a sweet crust, creamy base, and vibrant fruits for a perfect party dessert.
Ingredients
1 prepared sugar cookie dough (or your favorite sugar cookie recipe) 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1/4 cup powdered sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup strawberries, sliced 1 cup blueberries 1 kiwi, peeled and sliced 1/2 cup mandarin orange segments Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out sugar cookie dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper into a large circle. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely. In a bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled cookie crust. Arrange the strawberries and blueberries on one side to represent the blue and red colors of the flag. Place kiwi slices and mandarin orange segments on the other side for green and orange accents. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Slice and serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use any seasonal fruits to customize the colors. For a vegan option, substitute cream cheese with a dairy-free spread. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
