Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to the temperature listed on the sugar cookie dough package.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Press or roll the cookie dough into an even round or rectangle, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.
- Bake according to package directions until the edges are light golden. Remove from the oven.
- Transfer the baked crust to a wire rack and let it cool completely before adding the filling.
Make the Cream Cheese Spread
- In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until silky and lump-free.
Assemble the Fruit Pizza
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust, leaving about 1/4 inch of exposed edge.
- Slice and arrange the fresh fruit on top of the cream cheese spread artistically.
- If desired, warm a tablespoon or two of fruit preserves until runny and brush lightly over the fruit.
- Refrigerate the assembled pizza for at least 30 minutes to set the filling.
- Slice into pieces and serve cold.

Notes
Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 48 to 72 hours. Do not freeze the fully assembled pizza. For a vegan version, use dairy-free cream cheese.
