Mini Fruit Pizzas

For New Years Eve, my mom decided to make fruit pizza. She got out the sugar cookie dough and started cutting it up. I wondered why since she was making a pizza and she said it was easier to get the dough flattened like that. I then suggested we make mini fruit pizzas instead. So we did and I thought I'd share with you.

NOTE: So I made these yesterday and brought them into work today. I found out these do not keep well. The liquid from the fruit soaks into the cookies and starts to disintegrate them. Try to prepare these as close to the time you are going to eat them as possible. You can bake the cookies ahead of time and possibly frost them, but wait to add the fruit.

Step 1: Supplies

Ingredients:

16 oz Strawberry (estimate)
9 oz Blueberries (estimate)
11 oz can of Mandarine Oranges
4-5 Kiwifruits (estimate)
Sugar Cookie Dough
2 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 c. Sugar
1 pkg. Cream Cheese - softened
Strawberry Sauce (optional)
You can use whatever fruits you want! Try out different combinations :)

I had to estimate how much of the kiwi, strawberries and blueberries I used because I prepared all of what I bought and just put the extra together into a nice fruit bowl.

Supplies:

Supplies to bake cookies
Knife and cutting board
Bowl and utensils to make frosting

We made these today, but added more like two tablespoons of sugar to the frosting because it was all already pretty sweet. They turned out awesome! Great idea.

Tasting good is the most important thing! I'm glad I could lure you back to the site :)

Thanks! Yeah, sometimes you learn the hard way :(

I think that's the beauty of Instructables--we can learn the hard way and work things out, and then share so everyone else doesn't have to go through all the mistakes :-)

That is so so true! I swear most of my projects go amazingly wrong when working on them, but at least I know what to tell people not to do :)

At first I was confused, because of the title, and what it really is. But I will definitely try this, as I 'suspect' the combination fruit-cream cheese is very, very interesting...!

Thanks! What did you expect when you first read the title? I wasn't sure quite what to name it.

ThamarBerber in reply to Penolopy BulnickJan 18, 2013. 6:10 PM

Reading the title and the 'Ible' I really expected pizzas. :D
Than reading the ingredients, I was really confused! LOL!

It looks very good!
I'll try, because I love the fruit you used.

Thanks! The fruit is very good! There are so many fruits you can use but I didn't want to overwhelm the cookie so I just went with the ones I liked the best.

I hope they taste great :) I'd love to know what fruits you try and I'm glad you laughed even if it is for no real reason. Laughing is such a fun thing and I think people should do it all the time just cause :)
