Ingredients
Scale
- 1 batch of fruit pizza dough (see Note)*
- 8 oz (224g) full-fat block-style cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 3 Tablespoons (43g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 and 1/4 cups (150g) confectioners’ sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 Tablespoon (15ml) fresh lemon juice
- assorted fresh berries, such as sliced strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, and/or raspberries
- 1 Tablespoon apricot preserves mixed with 1 Tablespoon lemon juice (optional glaze)
Instructions
- Follow the instructions for the fruit pizza dough, steps 1–3. You could also use store-bought sugar cookie dough. Cool crust completely before decorating.
- In a medium bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese and butter together on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the confectioners’ sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Beat for 1 minute or until creamy and combined. Spread a thick layer over the cooled sugar cookie crust.
- Garnish with fresh fruit. To make the optional glaze, whisk together a Tablespoon each of apricot preserves and lemon juice, warm for about 15 seconds in the microwave, then brush on top of the fruit.
- Cut into slices and serve. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Make sure to cool the crust completely to avoid sogginess from the toppings.
