We’re starting a season of happy celebrations and fresh fruit. Next Sunday is Easter, then next month we celebrate Mothers, Memorial Day, and follow-up with the June holiday of Father’s Day and last 4th of July. Oh the luscious food we’ll eat! I love serving fresh fruit during these warm months; I am always looking for simple treats to share with my friends.
Sugar Cookie Fruit Pizzas
Use organic when available. Servings depend on cookie recipe used. Icing and fruit for 24 to 30 cookies.

I’m making a pea and prosciutto pizza tonight. And watching Game of Thrones!
Yum, I’m ready to come over!
What a great idea. It’s almost like a strawberry shortcake, and so pretty.
They look delicious!
Your cookie pizzas look really good. I thought I saw little hands helping you make the cookies. That is the best part.
Oh yes that is the best! Happy Easter sweet friend.
This is such a brilliant recipe for kids X #mmbc
I love the sound of these. They are something my girls would love. What a great idea x
These are so colorful and tempting, great idea and recipe. Hey, there’s cheese in there, come link it up!
I LOVE fresh fruits and this is such a great idea! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe and the idea.

Looks very delicate … what a lovely idea .
These look like such a delicious sweet treat, they look really colourful and are perfect for a summer barbecue or picnic. #MMBC
Those are so pretty! I’m hoping time will open up for me to make cookies for Easter. It’s not as available as it has been in the past, what with being with Rick. But I’d love to make these — they’re so pretty!
If not for Easter, pin and make it in May or June. Fun and tasty!
HI Carol, these do look like fun and fruity pizzas. I’ll have to give your cream cheese icing a go as I do like a nice cream cheese icing, but like you I prefer it not too sweet.

Omgoodness!!! these look delicious! Thanks for linking up with us at the #WednesdayAIMLinkParty 35
I always forget about fruit pizza! I definitely need to make some of these this summer. My kids would love it! Plus, I love the idea of making individual “pizzas” out of cookies, instead of one big sheet. Thanks so much for sharing!
