Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- ½ cup salted butter (softened)
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 8 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
- ¼ cup salted butter (softened)
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
- 4 cups fruit (1 cup each of your favorite fruits*)
Instructions
- 1
Cream together the butter and granulated sugar in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl with a hand held mixer) until light and fluffy - about 1 to 2 minutes.
- 2
Add egg & vanilla and beat until combined.
- 3
In a small bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda & salt.
- 4
Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in the standing mixer and beat until combined.
- 5
Transfer the dough from the mixer to a lightly floured surface and shape it into a circle. Then, cover it with saran wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or overnight.
- 6
After the dough is chilled, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a large baking sheet or round pizza pan (preferred) with parchment paper.
- 7
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a 12” inch circle, then transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.
- 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned and the cookie looks a little puffy. Please do not overbake.
- 9
Let the cookie cool on the baking pan until it has reached room temperature. To speed up this process you can put it in the freezer or refrigerator.
- 10
While the cookie is baking, make the frosting.
- 11
Add room-temperature cream cheese and butter to the bowl of a standing mixer (or in a large bowl with a handheld mixer) and beat until combined (about 1-2 minutes).
- 12
Add vanilla, salt and powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Set aside but do not chill.
- 13
Transfer the cooled sugar cookie crust to a round, flat serving plate or platter.
- 14
Evenly spread the cream cheese frosting on top of the sugar cookie crust.
- 15
Arrange the chopped fruit of your choosing on top of the frosting in any pattern you'd like.
- 16
Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
