Ingredients:

Sugar Cookies:

  • 2 sticks softened unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups confectioner’s sugar

  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (plus 2 cups for rolling)
  • 2 tsp baking powder

Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • 8 oz package of cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1 pound powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruit:

  • variety of colorful fruit.  fresh is best.  Some canned fruit like mandarin oranges and pears are also great.  chopped into small pieces.  I used blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, mandarin oranges and  raspberries

Cookies:

Preheat oven to 400º.   

Combine butter and sugar.  Mix well.  Add egg and vanilla.  Mix well.   Add flour and baking powder.  Mix until it begins to clump.  Then knead with hands until it is fully mixed. 

Use either a circle cookie cutter (for more perfectly rounded cookies) or roll into a 1-1.5 inch ball and press down on a parchment paper covered cookie sheet with the bottom of a cup. 

Bake for 5-7 minutes.  Allow to cool before frosting.

 

Frosting:

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.  You will want to use a hand mixer or a stand mixer to get the right consistency.  Mix until it is thick and smooth.  

Using a butterknife or spatula, frost cooled sugar cookies with frosting.

Fruit Topping:

Arrange fruit onto frosting in a pattern that is colorful and even.  Fill in spaces with different colored fruits to make either a rainbow swirl or mix the colors up to your desire.

Cookies are ready to eat.  Keep refrigerated until you are ready to enjoy them.
