Description
A colorful dessert featuring a soft sugar cookie crust topped with creamy cheese and fresh fruits, perfect for summer picnics and gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package sugar cookie dough (340 g or 12 oz)
- 226 g (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 60 g (1/4 cup) granulated sugar
- 240 ml (1 cup) whipped topping
- Fresh fruits (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, kiwis)
- Optional: fruity glaze (e.g., apricot preserves)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Spread the sugar cookie dough evenly onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Allow to cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with granulated sugar until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped topping until combined.
- Once the cookie crust is cool, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust.
- Top the creamy layer with your choice of fresh fruit. Create a visually appealing pattern for a stunning presentation.
- If desired, heat 2 tablespoons of apricot preserves until melted. Brush it lightly over the fruit for a beautiful finish.
Notes
Avoid overbaking the cookie crust; it should remain soft and chewy. Assemble just before serving to avoid sogginess.
