Equipment

  • 1 9-inch round cake pan greased and floured
  • 1 Electric Mixer
  • 1 Mixing Bowl large

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Creamy Topping

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Fresh Fruit Toppings

  • 1 cup strawberries sliced
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1 kiwi peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup mandarin oranges drained

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9-inch round cake pan by greasing and flouring it thoroughly.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the dough tender.
  • Spread the cookie dough evenly in the prepared cake pan. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the edges are golden and the center is set. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Creamy Topping

  • In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until creamy and well-blended.
  • Once the cookie base has cooled, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the top, creating a smooth layer.

Decorating

  • Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and mandarin oranges on top of the creamy layer. Create patterns or designs as desired.
  • Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the topping to set.

Serving and Storage

  • Slice the fruit pizza cookie cake into wedges and serve chilled. It pairs beautifully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The cake is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored for later.

Notes

Pro Tips: Use fresh, in-season fruits for the best flavor. Ingredient Substitutions: Low-fat cream cheese can be used for a lighter version. How to Serve: Best served chilled with a side of vanilla ice cream. Storage & Freshness: Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Make-Ahead Tips: Cookie base can be baked a day in advance.
