If you want people to think you spent HOURS decorating and days preparing, here’s the dish for you. It looks stunning with the huge display of fruit.
This is actually my boyfriend’s favorite dish! He is the one who introduced me to this dessert and I have never looked back since haha.
You can make this with pre-made ingredients like sugar cookie dough and canned frosting and just place canned fruit on top as well!
However, I think this recipe definitely tastes much better doing it from scratch. You can really taste the vanilla, cream, and fruit flavors much more clearly.
Plus, you can edit the amount of sugar that you put into the cookie and frosting!
For me I’ve noticed that store-bought ingredients and desserts often are too sweet and have a lot of artificial ingredients. This way you can control the portions and taste to the tee.
You have to give this a try, it’s much easier than you think!
I’m a beginner baker and chef myself and this took no time at all.
If you prep the fruit cutting beforehand and make the frosting ahead of time, you can assemble everything right before the party/occasion so that the cookie is still crisp and the fruit is still firm.
