Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat Your Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.
  3. Add the Eggs and Vanilla: Crack in the eggs and add the vanilla extract, then mix until fully combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mix to the wet ingredients, stirring until well blended.
  5. Bake the Base: Spread the dough onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges begin to turn golden.
  6. Cool Down: Let the cookie cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. Frost It Up: In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla, mixing until fluffy.
  8. Decorate with Fruit: Spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the cooled cookie base, then top with the fresh fruits.
  9. Slice & Serve: Cut into slices like a pizza and enjoy.

Notes

Feel free to swap ingredients! For example, use brown sugar for a deeper flavor or applesauce instead of eggs. To enhance freshness, choose fruits that don’t brown quickly, and add chopped nuts for extra crunch.
