Description
A refreshing, no-bake dessert featuring a crisp sugar cookie base topped with a smooth, tangy cream cheese mixture and arranged with fresh berries. It balances sweetness with acidity for a light yet indulgent treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large round sugar cookie (approx. 12 inches)
- 8 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2–3 tbsp heavy cream
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup raspberries
- 1 kiwi, sliced (optional)
Instructions
- Place the large sugar cookie on a serving platter or large plate. If broken, arrange pieces to form a circle.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium-high speed for 1 minute until smooth. Scrape down sides.
- Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat for 2 minutes until light and fluffy. If too thick, add heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cookie base, reaching the edges.
- Wash, dry, and slice the strawberries. Drain excess juice from blueberries and raspberries.
- Arrange strawberries in concentric circles starting from the edge. Fill gaps with blueberries and raspberries. Place kiwi slices in the center if using.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the topping to set.
- Slice into wedges with a sharp knife and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps. Do not use fruits that release excessive water (like watermelon) unless thoroughly drained. For a dairy-free version, use vegan cream cheese and coconut cream. For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free sugar cookie or pie crust.
