Ingredients
  

Mini Patriotic Fruit Pizzas
  • 1 tube refrigerated sugar cookie dough Use 1 tube for the cookie rounds.
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 0.5 cup fresh raspberries
  • 2 tbsp apricot jam For glaze, mixed with 1 tbsp water.
  • 1 tbsp water For glaze, mixed with apricot jam (optional).

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Bake the sugar cookie bases
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F, then slice the refrigerated sugar cookie dough into 1/2-inch rounds and place them on parchment-lined baking sheets.
  2. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centers still look slightly underdone, then cool completely.
Make the cream cheese frosting
  1. Beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until completely smooth.
Assemble and decorate
  1. Spread a generous layer of cream cheese frosting over each cooled cookie, leaving a small border.
  2. Decorate each mini pizza with strawberry slices, blueberries, and raspberries in a flag stripe pattern, star shape, or a scattered design.
Glaze (optional) and chill
  1. Mix apricot jam with water, then warm it and brush lightly over the fruit for a glossy finish if desired.
  2. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

For the cleanest look, let the cookies cool completely before frosting so the cream cheese doesn’t melt. Store covered in the refrigerator for 2–3 days (best texture after 24 hours); freezing is not recommended because the fruit can bleed. For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free sugar cookie dough tube in the same amount.
