Ingredients
  

1 pre-made sugar cookie dough (or your favorite sugar cookie recipe)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup whipped topping (optional, for added fluffiness)

1 cup sliced strawberries

1 cup diced pineapple

1 cup kiwi slices

1 cup blueberries

1/2 cup shredded coconut (optional)

Zest of 1 lime (for garnish)

1 tbsp lime juice (for a hint of zest)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Cookie Base: Roll out the sugar cookie dough into a large circle on a parchment-lined baking sheet, about 1/4 inch thick. Bake according to package instructions or until lightly golden, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

      Make the Cream Cheese Spread: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and whipped topping (if using). Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

        Assemble the Pizza: Once the cookie base is completely cooled, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the top using a spatula.

          Add the Fruit Toppings: Arrange the sliced strawberries, diced pineapple, kiwi, and blueberries artfully across the cream cheese layer. Feel free to create patterns or simply toss them on for a more rustic look.

            Garnish: Sprinkle the shredded coconut over the topped pizza and drizzle with lime juice. Finish with lime zest on top and add mint leaves for a fresh touch.

              Chill and Serve: Place the fruit pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and to chill before slicing. Once ready, cut into wedges and serve fresh!
