# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the cookie dough on a floured counter about 1/4-inch thick. Cut egg shapes with your cutter or a paper guide. Put them on a paper-lined cookie sheet. Cook for 10-12 minutes till the edges turn slightly golden. Let them sit on the tray a bit, then move to a cooling rack.
02 -
You can grab big cookies from the grocery store. If you're using pizza crust, bake it first, then cut egg shapes with a knife or cutter. For pound cake, slice it thick and shape into eggs with a knife or cutter.
03 -
Take a big bowl and beat together the soft cream cheese and butter until they're smooth. Add the sugar one cup at a time, mixing well after each cup. Drop in the vanilla and mix it up. Add milk bit by bit until your frosting feels nice and smooth.
04 -
Smear a thick layer of frosting over each cooled base. Lay out your strawberry slices, blueberries, kiwi, orange bits, raspberries, grapes, and any other fruits to make pretty egg patterns.
05 -
You can pop these fruit pizzas in the fridge for half an hour to firm up the frosting and blend the flavors together.
