Description
Delicious sweet little pizzas for a summer party – simple sugar cookies topped with a cream cheese frosting and fresh fruits and berries.
Ingredients
Scale
For the dough
- 1 cup (230g) butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups (300g) sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3 cups (390g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
For the frosting/decoration
- 1/4 cup (60g) butter
- 8 oz (230g) cream cheese
- pinch of salt
- 2 cups (260g) confectioners’ sugar
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- fruits and berries (kiwi, mango, raspberry, blueberry etc.)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside.
- Add the butter and sugar to a large bowl and mix until light and fluffy. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Mix the flour with baking powder, and salt and add to the bowl, mix until just combined. Use a cookie scoop (or ice cream scoop) to place dough portions with enough space in between on the baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes. The cookies should not get much of a color and look slightly under-baked. Take out of the oven and let cool down on the baking sheet for some time, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool down completely.
- Decorate the cookies right before serving. For the frosting mix the butter, cream cheese, and salt until well combined. Add the confectioners’ sugar and vanilla extract and mix well. Place in the fridge until needed. Wash, dry and cut the fruits/berries into smaller pieces. To decorate the cookies, add some of the cream cheese frosting on top of a cookie and top with pieces of fruits and berries. Keep leftovers separately in the fridge and finish more cookies when needed.
Notes
- Enjoy baking!
