Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gather baking equipment, including a greased pizza pan or a lined baking sheet.
  2. Slice the refrigerated sugar cookie dough into 1/4 inch thick pieces. Arrange on the pizza pan and press together to form a continuous layer.
  3. Bake the crust for 11-12 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
  4. Wash and dry the fresh blueberries and raspberries thoroughly to avoid excess moisture.
  5. Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sugar and vanilla, and fold in whipped topping until fluffy.
  6. Spread half of the cheesecake mousse evenly over the cooled cookie crust.
  7. Outline the top left of the fruit pizza with fresh blueberries to create the blue field.
  8. Place fresh raspberries in horizontal rows to mimic the red stripes of the flag. Pipe remaining cheesecake mousse between rows.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
