Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup (60 g) powdered sugar
  • ½ cup (120 ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 1 cup peeled and sliced kiwi
  • ½ cup blueberries
  • ½ cup diced mango (optional)
  • Optional: honey drizzle or finely chopped fresh mint for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your pizza pan or baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat softened butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Press the dough evenly onto the prepared pan, forming a 12-inch diameter circle about ½ inch thick.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until edges are golden and center is set but still soft to the touch.
  8. Transfer the cookie base to a wire rack and cool completely before adding the creamy layer.
  9. In a clean bowl, beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
  10. In a separate bowl, whip cold heavy cream to soft peaks.
  11. Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until combined and fluffy.
  12. Spread the creamy layer evenly over the cooled cookie base.
  13. Arrange sliced strawberries, kiwi, blueberries, and mango (if using) on top in any pattern.
  14. Refrigerate the assembled fruit pizza cookie for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  15. Serve chilled or at room temperature, optionally garnished with honey drizzle or fresh mint.

Notes

Use room temperature butter, egg, and cream cheese for smooth mixing. Avoid overbaking the cookie base to keep it soft in the center. Whip cream to soft peaks only and fold gently into cream cheese to maintain light texture. Pat fruit dry before assembling to prevent sogginess. Chill assembled cookie for at least 30 minutes before serving.
