(Red, White & Blue) Sugar Cookie Fruit Pizzas
When summer rolls around, so do the patriotic holidays, and these mini Sugar Cookie Fruit Pizzas are the perfect, no-bake treat for Memorial Day, the 4th of July, and Labor Day.
Equipment
- sharp pairing knife to slice strawberries
- small cookie scoop
Ingredients
- 12 sugar cookies store bought
- ½ cup raspberries
- ½ cup blueberries
- ½ cup strawberries sliced
Cream Cheese Frosting
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
Glaze
- 1 cup orange juice
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 2 T corn starch
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the 1 cup orange juice, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 2 Tbls cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture starts to bubble and thicken. It will become a transparent amber color.Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature. Tip: I transfer it from pan to a glass bowl to help it cool faster.
- In a stand mixer, or a medium bowl with a hand-held electric mixer, beat 8oz of softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract, and continue to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Spread a generous layer (about 1Tbls) of the cream cheese frosting onto each sugar cookie. I use this cookie scoop to ensure I am putting a consistent amount on each cookie.
- Wash the berries and pat dry. Arrange the raspberries, sliced strawberries, and blueberries on top of the frosting. I like to pile them and overlap them a bit in a rustic manner, but you can also create a uniform red, white, and blue pattern so each mini fruit pizza looks the same.
- Lightly brush the cooled glaze over the fruit. I use a pastry brush, but you can also drizzle with a small spoon. Make sure the glaze fills in the cracks between the fruit. This will add shine, help preserve freshness, and keep the berries from rolling off the cookie.
- Let fruit pizzas sit for a 5-10 minutes to give the glaze time to dry a bit. You can let them sit on counter, or pop them into the fridge to chill.
- These mini fruit pizzas are best served immediately. If preparing ahead, store the assembled cookies in the refrigerator.
Notes
Store leftover mini fruit pizzas in an air tight container like this
in refrigerator for to 3 days.
