Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Base
- 1/4 cup butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
Topping
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
Garnish
- Assorted fresh fruits (strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, mango, grapes)
- Melted white chocolate (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cookie bases.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the salt, cream of tartar, and baking soda. Gradually add the all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Shape and Bake Cookies: Scoop the dough into small rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet and flatten them slightly. Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- Prepare Creamy Topping: In one bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture to create a light and fluffy topping.
- Assemble Mini Fruit Pizzas: Spread the cream mixture evenly over the cooled cookie bases. Top each mini pizza with assorted fresh fruits. Finally, drizzle melted white chocolate over the fruit for an elegant finish.
Notes
- Ensure the cookies are completely cooled before adding the cream topping to prevent melting.
- You can substitute the fresh fruit with any seasonal or preferred fruits.
- For a festive touch, use colorful fruits and decorative sprinkles along with the white chocolate drizzle.
- Store assembled mini fruit pizzas in the refrigerator and consume within 1-2 days for best freshness.
- Use parchment paper when baking to avoid sticking and for easy cleanup.
