Y’all! It’s honestly borderline sinful I haven’t shared this fruit pizza recipe with you after seven years of blogging! I’ll eventually update with this post with more professional photos but I knew I couldn’t keep this fruit pizza recipe from you any longer so iPhone photos will just have to do for now. This is something my brother and I would always ask my mom to make when we were younger and I have been making myself since college! It’s the perfect dessert to take to a barbecue or serve for any summertime gathering. If you’re still social distancing like we are, trust me when I say there is no shame in making it just for you and the fam to enjoy at home… I promise you’ll have to hold yourself from eating the whole thing!

While you can make fruit pizza in any shape and design to suit any occasion, I think an American Flag with strawberries and blueberries is a must for the 4th of July! It’s a cute and delicious way to bring a little patriotism to your cookout and it’s super easy to make. Check out the recipe below for instructions on how to make this fruit pizza recipe.
How To Make a Fruit Pizza
FRUIT PIZZA
Ingredients
- 1 package Pillsbury cookie dough
- 1 package (8 oz) Cream Cheese (softened) I use 1/3 fat
- 1 tub (8 oz) Cool Whip
- 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 10 Strawberries (may need more or less)
- 1/4 cup Blueberries
- 2 Tbsps. Strawberry Jam
Instructions
- Gently spread cookie dough onto a baking sheet in rectangular shape using fingers (use parchment paper underneath if you plan on transferring to another platter). It's best to let cookie dough sit out for a little bit so it is easier to spread. Do not use a rolling pin like you would with homemade cookie dough.
- Bake cookie dough in oven according to package.
- In bowl mix softened cream cheese, cool whip, powdered sugar and vanilla then set aside.
- Thinly slice strawberries for topping.
- Once cookie is out of oven and cooled, spread cream cheese mixture on top. *Must wait until cookie is cooled!
- Place blueberries in top left corner and strawberries in horizontal lines for American flag or do your own design!
- Melt strawberry jam (20-30 seconds) and drizzle on top of fruit. I use a spoon to spread on tops of strawberries and blueberries. This gives the fruit pizza a nice glaze.
- Place in fridge for at least 1 hour before serving. Best eaten within 24 hours!
