Instructions

Preheat Your Oven:
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Prepare the Cookie Dough:
Roll out your sugar cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You can use a round cookie cutter or just shape the dough into large circles (about 4-6 inches in diameter). Bake the cookies according to package instructions or until they’re golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Let them cool completely.

Make the Frosting:
In a medium bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, whipped topping, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more powdered sugar if necessary.

Assemble the Pizzas:
Spread a generous layer of the frosting onto each cooled sugar cookie. Be sure to leave a little edge to resemble a pizza crust.

Decorate with Fruit:
Now comes the fun part! Arrange your fresh fruit on top of the frosting to create colorful “egg” designs. You can make patterns or simply pile on the fruit however you like—either way, it’s going to look beautiful.

Optional: Add sprinkles for a little extra Easter magic!

Serve & Enjoy:
Once all your fruit pizzas are assembled, serve them immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving. These fruity delights are perfect for Easter brunch, a family gathering, or as a sweet snack for the kids.
