This fruit pizza is so easy and so yummy! The best way to eat fruit! A layer of soft sugar cookie, topped with cream cheese frosting, and colorful fruit! The perfect dessert for your next party!
Growing up, my mom had a few delicious desserts in her file of recipe cards that my sister and I loved to help make. The classic jello poke cake, ice cream cone cupcakes, and one of my favorites, the fruit pizza.
It’s pretty simple, but it comes together so perfectly. I love the bright colors, and honestly, it’s my favorite way to eat fruit. A layer of soft sugar cookie topped with cream cheese frosting and sweet fruit. Mmmm.
I haven’t made one since my kids were born so last week I decided to throw one together and let the kids help! Maybe next time I’ll let them decorate it, but you know since I was taking pictures for ya’ll I had to make it pretty!
The whole time we were making it together my son kept asking if he could eat the cookie. Even before we had frosted it! That’s how much my family is into sweets, guys. We can’t get enough.
One of the best parts about this recipe is that it can easily be turned into mini fruit pizzas, too. Just roll the dough and cut it into little circles instead of pressing it into a pizza pan.
Next time you’re asked to bring the dessert to a party, think about bringing one of these bad boys. Everyone will love it, and you can even do colors to match your favorite football team or the closest holiday! Fruit comes in every color so the possibilities are endless!

Hi, wondering how far in advance I can make this? Don’t want to have the cookie too soggy.
Chelsea Johnson says
I’d say serve within a few hours. And make sure you keep it in the refrigerator until you serve it!
Karen says
Hello Chelsea
could you bake the base the day before, and then put the cream cheese and topping just before serving. How many days before could you bake the base?
Chelsea Johnson says
You probably could! I wouldn’t bake it more than a day in advance, though!
