Preparation Steps

• In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla extract into the creamed mixture until fully combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed just until the dough comes together.
• Knead the dough gently into a smooth disc, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-14 inch circle about ¼ inch thick.
• Carefully transfer the rolled dough to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges turn a light golden brown.
• Allow the baked sugar cookie crust to cool completely on the baking sheet.
• Beat together the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
• Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, until fully incorporated and smooth.
• Beat in vanilla extract and 2-3 tablespoons of milk or heavy cream until the frosting is smooth and spreadable.
• Spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the cooled sugar cookie crust.
• Artistically place the sliced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwi slices, diced mango, and mandarin orange segments over the frosting.
• Melt the apricot jam or apple jelly in a small saucepan over low heat and brush it gently over the arranged fruit.
• Chill the prepared fruit pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Slice into wedges and serve chilled.
