1. Make the sugar cookie dough

• In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the egg and vanilla extract, beating until smooth and well combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.

2. Shape and bake the crust

• Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).
• Line a large baking sheet or pizza pan with parchment paper.
• Roll the dough into a large oval or egg shape about ¼ inch thick. You can use a knife to trim the edges for a neater Easter egg outline.
• Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are just golden.
• Let the crust cool completely on the pan before decorating.

3. Prepare the frosting

• In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and butter until creamy.
• Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until smooth and fluffy.
• Add lemon juice or milk a little at a time to reach a spreadable consistency.

4. Frost the cookie base

• Once the cookie crust has fully cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly across the surface.
• Smooth the top using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon.

5. Decorate with fruit

• Arrange your sliced fruit on top of the frosting in colorful patterns to resemble a decorated Easter egg.
• Alternate colors, shapes, and rows to create a visually striking design.
• Get creative—make stripes, dots, or floral shapes using different fruits.

6. Optional glaze

• For a glossy finish and to help preserve the fruit, brush a light glaze over the top using warm honey or melted apricot jam.
• Chill the fruit pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
