Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 16 oz sugar cookie dough
  • 1 tbsp flour
For the Cottage Cheese Frosting
  • 1.5 cup cottage cheese Blend until smooth for a thick, spreadable frosting.
  • 4 oz cream cheese Soften to room temperature.
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Fruit Toppings
  • 1 cup strawberries Sliced.
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 kiwi Sliced.
  • 1 mandarin orange Segmented.
  • 0.5 cup raspberries
  • 2 tbsp honey For glaze.

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Bake the crust
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Set a 12-inch pizza pan on a stable surface for quick transfer.
  2. Press the sugar cookie dough into a 12-inch pizza pan, then sprinkle the flour over the surface and lightly pat it in. Make an even thickness so the crust bakes uniformly.
  3. Bake for 12–15 minutes until lightly golden. Watch the edges for color and remove when the center looks set.
  4. Allow the crust to cool completely. This prevents the frosting from melting or sliding.
Make the cottage cheese frosting
  1. Blend the cottage cheese until smooth. This creates a creamy texture without lumps.
  2. Beat together cottage cheese, cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract until creamy. Scrape the sides as needed for a uniform frosting.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly over the cooled crust. Use gentle pressure to keep the crust flat.
Top and chill
  1. Arrange the strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, mandarin orange, and raspberries in a colorful pattern over the frosting. Aim for even coverage so each slice has fruit.
  2. Drizzle lightly with honey glaze made from the remaining honey. Keep the drizzle subtle so the fruit stays bright.
  3. Chill for 30 minutes before slicing and serving. Set the pizza in the refrigerator for clean, defined cuts.

Notes

Pro tip: cool the crust fully before frosting—warm crust will thin the topping. Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 3 days; for best texture, keep fruit-topped slices chilled. Freezing is not recommended because fresh fruit releases water when thawed. If you want a lower-sugar option, use a honey substitute or reduce honey slightly and taste the frosting for sweetness.
