Ingredients
  

1 large sugar cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup whipped cream or Cool Whip

1 cup diced pineapple (fresh or canned, drained)

1 cup sliced strawberries

1 cup sliced kiwi

1/2 cup blueberries

1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)

Zest of 1 lime

Juice of 1 lime

1 tbsp honey or agave syrup (optional for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Cookie Base: Roll out the sugar cookie dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to form a large pizza shape. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Allow it to cool completely.

      Make the Cream Cheese Spread: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lime juice. Mix until smooth and creamy. Fold in the whipped cream gently until well blended.

        Spread the Base: Once the cookie crust has cooled, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the top of the cookie.

          Prepare the Fruit Toppings: Arrange the diced pineapple, sliced strawberries, sliced kiwi, and blueberries beautifully on top of the cream cheese layer. Feel free to get creative with your arrangement!

            Add Coconut and Zest: If using, sprinkle shredded coconut over the fruit. Lastly, zest a lime over the entire pizza for added flavor.

              Drizzle (Optional): If you like a bit of sweetness, lightly drizzle honey or agave syrup over the fruit.

                Chill and Serve: Place the fruit pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Slice into wedges and serve chilled.
