Since you’re able to use already made cookie dough, this fourth of July dessert is a breeze! It’s a sweet treat that just keeps getting better and better. If you want to make your own sugar cookies from scratch you can do that as well. Here is our favorite Sugar Cookie Recipe.
I’m all about using the freshest fruit possible so this is why I love using strawberries and blueberries during this time of year. They’re sweet and delicious and I just love that added natural sweetness.
Easy Red, White, and Blue Mini Fruit Pizzas Directions
Start by preheating the oven and dividing the sugar cut dough evenly into 24 pieces. Once that is done put them 2 inches apart on your baking sheet.
Pop them in the oven and cook for 10-12 minutes.
Take them out after that time and let them cool.
As you’re giving the cookies time to cool, it’s time to prep the fruit. Wash and stem the strawberries and slice them into 2-3 slices. Make certain to rinse off the blueberries, too.
Grab a bowl and mix the powdered sugar, vanilla, and cream cheese on high for about 3 minutes. Put the mixture on top of each cooled cookie.
Add one strawberry slice on each cookie and then put the blueberries around the edge.
Pop in the fridge if you’re not going to eat right away.
It’s really as simple as that! These 4th of July treats are fast, unique, and a fun way to eat a “pizza” for dessert. Great for a 4th of July party or a sweet treat at home.
