A festive, no-bake dessert featuring a soft sugar cookie crust topped with a creamy layer and fresh red, white, and blue berries. Perfect for summer parties and quick to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 cup strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries, washed and dried
  • 1 cup raspberries or blackberries (optional)
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional garnish)
  • Light dusting of powdered sugar (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Press the sugar cookie dough evenly into a 9-inch pizza pan to form a 1/4 inch thick crust.
  2. Chill the crust in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  3. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture to keep it light and airy.
  6. Remove the chilled crust from the fridge and spread the creamy mixture evenly over it.
  7. Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, and optional berries in a patriotic pattern on top.
  8. Refrigerate the assembled fruit pizza for at least 1 hour to set and meld flavors.
  9. Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves or a light dusting of powdered sugar if desired.

Notes

Chill the crust for at least 30 minutes to ensure it firms up properly. Use room temperature cream cheese for smooth blending. Whip cream to stiff peaks and fold gently to keep the cream layer light. Dry berries well to avoid soggy crust. Use a serrated knife and wipe clean between cuts for neat slices. Variations include using gluten-free dough or dairy-free cream for dietary needs.
