Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 roll (16.5 oz) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (for rolling)
  • 8 oz block cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1/2 cup fresh blackberries
  • 1/4 cup apricot jam or apple jelly (optional, for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Let cookie dough soften for 10 minutes. On a floured surface, roll or press dough into a 12-inch circle, 1/4-inch thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Bake crust for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden. Let cool completely on the pan.
  3. Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla with an electric mixer until smooth, about 2 minutes.
  4. In a separate chilled bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no white streaks remain.
  6. Assemble: Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the completely cooled cookie crust, leaving a small border.
  7. Arrange the washed and dried berries artfully over the cream cheese layer.
  8. Optional glaze: Warm apricot jam in microwave for 15-20 seconds until liquid. Gently dab over fruit with a pastry brush.
  9. Refrigerate the assembled pizza for at least 1 hour before slicing. Use a sharp knife, wiping it clean between cuts.

Notes

Ensure the cookie crust is completely cool before adding the cream cheese layer to prevent melting. Dry berries thoroughly after washing to avoid a soggy crust. The dessert is best enjoyed the day it's made but can be refrigerated for 1-2 days.
