Ingredients:

• 1 pre-made sugar cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)

• 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced

Preparation:

Step 1: Preheat the oven according to the sugar cookie dough instructions. Roll out the cookie dough onto a pizza pan, creating a thin and even crust. Bake according to the package instructions until golden.

Step 2: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3: Once the cookie crust has cooled, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface.

Step 4: Arrange the sliced strawberries, kiwi, diced pineapple, diced mango, blueberries, and raspberries on top of the cream cheese layer.

Step 5: In a small saucepan, heat the apricot preserves (or fruit jam of your choice) until melted. Gently brush the melted preserves over the fresh fruits for a glossy finish.

COOKING Note:

Be cautious not to overbake the sugar cookie crust to maintain a tender texture.
