Description
At its heart, a Mini Fruit Pizzas with Sugar Cookie Crust is a handheld version of the classic large-scale fruit pizza. While the larger version is often served on a massive pizza stone and sliced like a traditional pie, the mini version offers a much more refined experience. Each guest gets their own individual “pizza,” which means no messy slicing and a much higher ratio of crust-to-frosting-to-fruit in every single bite.
Ingredients
For the crust
1 roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough (or homemade sugar cookie dough)
For the frosting
4 oz (113 g) cream cheese, softened
¼ cup powdered sugar
½ tsp vanilla extract
For the toppings
Use any fresh fruits you like:
Strawberries (sliced) 🍓
Blueberries 🫐
Kiwi (peeled & sliced) 🥝
Mandarin oranges 🍊
Pineapple chunks 🍍
Grapes (halved) 🍇
Optional glaze:
2 tbsp apricot jam or honey
1 tsp water
Instructions
1. Bake the cookie base
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roll sugar cookie dough into small balls (about 1–1½ tbsp each).
Place on a baking sheet and flatten slightly to form mini rounds.
Bake 8–10 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
Let cookies cool completely.
2. Make the frosting
In a bowl, beat together:
cream cheese
powdered sugar
vanilla extract
Mix until smooth and creamy.
3. Assemble the fruit pizzas
Spread 1–2 tsp frosting on each cooled cookie.
Arrange fresh fruit slices on top in fun patterns.
4. Add optional glaze
Heat apricot jam + water for about 10–15 seconds in microwave.
Lightly brush over fruit for a shiny finish.
