Ingredients

For the Sugar Cookie Base

• 1 roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated sugar cookie dough (or homemade)
• 1/4 cup flour (for rolling out dough)

For the Cream Cheese Frosting

• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Toppings

• 1/2 cup strawberries, sliced
• 1/2 cup kiwi, diced
• 1/2 cup blueberries
• 1/2 cup mandarin oranges, drained
• 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional, for a “nest” effect)

How to Make Easter Egg Fruit Pizzas

Step 1: Bake the Cookie “Eggs”

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2. Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the sugar cookie dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. This ensures they are sturdy enough to hold the toppings but still soft and chewy.
3. Use an oval-shaped cookie cutter or a knife to carefully cut out egg shapes from the dough. If using a knife, lightly trace an egg shape on parchment paper and cut around it as a guide.
4. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about an inch of space between them to allow for slight spreading.
5. Bake for 8–10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them, as baking times may vary depending on your oven.
6. Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before frosting. Warm cookies will melt the frosting, so patience is key.

Step 2: Make the Frosting

1. In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2 minutes on medium speed.
2. Gradually add the powdered sugar and continue mixing until the frosting is light and fluffy. Start at a low speed to avoid sugar clouds in your kitchen.
3. Mix in the vanilla extract for a boost of flavor. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a teaspoon of milk. If you like it thicker, add a bit more powdered sugar.

Step 3: Decorate with Fruit

1. Using a butter knife or offset spatula, spread an even layer of frosting over each cooled cookie. Make sure to get all the way to the edges for a full, colorful effect.
2. Now for the fun part! Arrange your fruit toppings in decorative patterns to resemble Easter egg designs. Try horizontal stripes of different fruits, polka dots using blueberries, or zigzag patterns with alternating colors.
3. If using shredded coconut, lightly sprinkle it over the top for a soft, “nest-like” texture.
4. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours to keep the fruit fresh.

Tips & Tricks

• Make it ahead – Bake the cookies a day in advance and store them in an airtight container. Frost and decorate just before serving for the freshest look.
• Healthier option – Swap sugar cookies for whole wheat or almond flour cookies to add fiber and nutrients.
• Get the kids involved – Let them decorate their own cookies for a fun Easter activity. Lay out different fruits and let them create their own patterns.
• Drizzle it – Add a finishing touch by drizzling a little melted white chocolate or honey over the top for extra sweetness.
• Chill the frosting – If your frosting gets too soft, pop it in the fridge for 10 minutes before decorating.
