From the Cook
1/2
Easy Fruit Cookie Pizza
Instructions
1
Preheat oven to 350°F.
2
Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
3
Place softened butter and granulated sugar into a large bowl. Use a mixer with a whisk attachment to mix the butter and sugar together on medium speed until pale and fluffy, for 1 minute.
4
Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract, and continue to beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, 30 seconds to one minute.
5
Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to bowl. Mix on low speed for about 1 minute to combine all ingredients and form a smooth dough.
6
Transfer dough to center of the baking sheet. Dust hands with flour and pat dough into a disc approximately 1/2-inch thick and 8 inches in diameter.
7
Bake the cookie on middle rack of oven until edges are golden brown and the center is puffy and matte, 19-21 minutes.
8
Check to see that cookie is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed. Allow cookie to cool completely before frosting and decorating.
9
While the cookie cools, make the frosting. Using a mixer with a whisk attachment, mix the cream cheese and butter together until smooth.
10
Add powdered sugar and a small pinch of salt and mix on low until combined and no lumps remain. Add vanilla extract and heavy cream. Mix on medium-high speed until frosting is light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
11
Refrigerate frosting until just prior to serving.
12
Shortly before serving, slice the assorted fruit into bite-sized pieces.
13
Remove frosting from refrigerator and spread it over the center of the cookie, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Arrange sliced fruit on top of frosting.
14
Combine the apricot jam and water in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the jam on high until it thins to a syrupy consistency, 30-40 seconds.
15
Brush a thin layer of the apricot jam glaze over the fruit with a pastry brush.
16
Slice and serve the fruit cookie pizza immediately. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for 1-2 days.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Chill Cookie Dough Before Baking 🧊Refrigerate your sugar cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking to prevent spreading and achieve crispy edges with a chewy center.
- Use Room Temperature Cream Cheese 🧈Soften cream cheese to room temperature and whip it with butter for 2-3 minutes until fluffy and light, creating an airy frosting that spreads smoothly without lumps.
- Brush Cookie with Apricot Glaze 🍯Warm the apricot jam slightly and brush it over the cooled cookie base before adding frosting to create a moisture barrier and add subtle fruity flavor that complements the topping.
- Pat Fruit Dry for Better Adhesion 🍓Gently pat fresh fruit with paper towels before arranging to remove excess moisture, preventing the frosting from becoming soggy and helping fruit stay firmly in place.
- Assemble Just Before Serving 🎯Top the pizza with fruit within 1-2 hours of serving to maintain the frosting's texture and prevent fruit juices from weeping into the cream cheese layer.
