Sugar Cookie Fruit Tarts
Jul 19, 2025 01:34 AM
These beautiful sugar cookie fruit tarts are made with sugar cookies, cream cheese frosting, and fresh fruit. This is the perfect summer cookie.
This is my version of the full size “fruit pizzas” from the 90’s (remember those?). I love that this version makes individual cookies so they are super easy to serve. Use your favorite mixture of fruit and adapt to suit your taste preferences.
