Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Crust:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/3 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

For the Fruit Toppings:

1 cup sliced strawberries

1 cup blueberries

1 cup sliced kiwis

1 cup mandarin orange segments

1 cup sliced bananas

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Make the Cookie Crust:

    - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

      - In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and granulated sugar, and cream them together with a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

        - Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until they are fully incorporated into the buttery mixture.

          - In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.

            - Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

              - Spoon the cookie dough onto a large baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper. Using a spatula or your hands, spread the dough into a circle about ½ inch thick, resembling a pizza shape.

                - Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack to let the cookie crust cool completely.

                  Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting:

                    - In a medium bowl, using a mixer, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

                      - Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.

                        - In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form (this should take about 3-5 minutes).

                          - Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a rubber spatula until the ingredients are fully combined and smooth, ensuring you maintain the fluffiness of the whipped cream.

                            Assemble the Fruit Pizza:

                              - Once the cookie crust has cooled completely, use an offset spatula or knife to spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the surface.

                                - Decoratively arrange a variety of the fresh fruit on top of the frosting in a colorful design, playing with different patterns and placements for visual appeal!

                                  - If desired, add fresh mint leaves on top for a refreshing touch and extra color.

                                    Serve and Enjoy:

                                      - Cut the fruit pizza into wedges and serve immediately, or refrigerate for a short while until you're ready to dig in. This delightful treat is perfect for warm sunny days or festive gatherings!
