1 package (16.5 oz) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup fresh blueberries
1-2 cups sliced strawberries
1 cup mini marshmallows (optional)
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare crust: Roll out the sugar cookie dough onto a pizza pan or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Shape into a rectangle or circle.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, until lightly golden. Allow to cool completely.
Make frosting: In a bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
Frost crust: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled cookie crust.
Decorate: Arrange blueberries in the top left corner to form the flag’s stars. Layer strawberry slices into rows for stripes. Use mini marshmallows if desired to enhance the white stripes.
Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
For best results, decorate close to serving time to keep the fruit fresh.
Substitute different fruits like raspberries or bananas for variety.
Light whipped topping can replace cream cheese frosting for a lighter version.
