Mini Fruit Pizzas

I love fruit pizza and these are perfect for entertaining because they are individual fruit pizzas. A buttery cookie dough, rolled out and cut into shapes, baked off, frosted with the ultimate cream cheese frosting and topped with juicy, delicious fruit! You've got to make this...

PPM tip! Make up butter cookies and bake off, label and freeze; this makes dessert such as this, even easier!

The Steps to Make your Fruit Pizzas...

Butter Cookies:

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

1/2 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 egg

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

flour for rolling out cookies

Combine flour, baking powder and salt in mixing bowl, and set aside

Combine sugar and butter in another mixing bowl. Using mixer on med. speed , beat until well blended

Add egg and vanilla, beat until light and fluffy

Turn the mixture to low and gradually add flour mixture until well blended. 

Roll into a ball and wrap with plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.

To make the individual fruit pizzas:

Take dough out of fridge and flour your work surface

Roll out dough until about 1/4 inch thick

Use a round cookie cutter and make as many cookies as you can and bake in an 400 degree oven for 8 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges

Take out of oven and let cool

Continue to make and bake cookies until complete

Cream Cheese Frosting:

 6 oz. cream cheese, softened

1/2 butter

4 cups powdered sugar

2 tsp. vanilla

In your mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until whipped. Add your powdered sugar and vanilla and mix until whipped and ready

Assembly:

Prepare and cut fruit of all kinds you'd like on your pizza, such as: kiwi, banana, strawberry, blackberry and blueberries, raspberries and more. Place cut and ready in small pieces in a bowl. Stir lightly to combine all berries.

Place your cooled cookies on a work surface and frost each cookie and top with your mixed fruit.

Place on a pretty tiered platter or dish and you're ready to enjoy!
