INGREDIENTS
- 1 package American Mixed Berry Dip Mix
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1 tube refrigerated cookie dough or crescent roll dough
- Fresh cut fruit โ strawberries, blueberries, grapes, bananas, apples, melon, kiwi, raspberries, etc.
- Optional: shredded coconut, chopped nuts
- Optional: 1 to 2 tablespoons orange marmalade or Fruit Fresh to prevent browning
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat your oven according to your cookie dough or crescent roll dough package directions.
- Press your cookie dough or crescent roll dough evenly onto a small pizza pan or cookie sheet to form your crust. Bake according to package directions until golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely before topping.
- While your crust cools, prepare your American Mixed Berry Dip Mix by combining the full package with 1/4 cup hot water. Stir until dissolved and let cool slightly.
- Beat your softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Fold in the prepared American Mixed Berry Mix until fully combined and beautifully pink and berry-flavored.
- Spread the berry cream cheese mixture evenly over your completely cooled crust all the way to the edges.
- Top generously with your fresh cut fruit, arranging it however you like. The more colorful the better! ๐ซ๐
- Optional: toss your fruit in 1 to 2 tablespoons of orange marmalade before topping to keep it fresh and prevent browning. Sprinkle with shredded coconut or chopped nuts if desired.
- Slice like a pizza and serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

TIPS FOR THE PERFECT FRUIT PIZZA
Let your crust cool completely. This is the most important step. If the crust is even slightly warm the cream cheese spread will melt and slide right off. Patience pays off here!
The more fruit the better. Don't be shy with your toppings. A generously loaded fruit pizza is a showstopper. A sparse one is just a cookie. Pile it high and make it beautiful! ๐
Make it patriotic for the 4th of July. Use strawberries and raspberries for red, blueberries for blue, and bananas or white grapes for white. Arrange them in a flag pattern or concentric circles for the most stunning patriotic dessert on any table. ๐บ๐ธ
Make it ahead. Bake and cool your crust the night before and make your berry cream cheese spread ahead of time too. Store separately in the refrigerator and assemble just before serving for the freshest result.
Crescent rolls make it extra flaky. If you want a lighter, flakier crust with a buttery finish, crescent roll dough is a wonderful alternative to cookie dough. Both are delicious โ it just depends on the texture you prefer!
Get creative with your fruit. There are no rules here. Use whatever is in season, whatever looks beautiful at the market, and whatever you love most. This recipe is forgiving, flexible and always gorgeous. ๐ธ
