Ingredients
  

Mini Patriotic Fruit Pizzas
  • 1 tube refrigerated sugar cookie dough 1 tube
  • 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 (optional) mixed with water
  • 1 tbsp water mix with apricot jam for glaze (optional)

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Bake the cookie bases
  1. Preheat 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 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 scattered design.
  3. Warm apricot jam with water until loose, brush lightly over the fruit for a glossy finish if desired, then refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

For the cleanest slices and neat patterns, arrange fruit while the frosting is still slightly soft, then chill so everything sets; store covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days. Freezing isn’t recommended because the fresh fruit can bleed and soften after thawing. For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free sugar cookie dough tube if available and follow the same bake time.
