4th of July Dessert

This is such an easy 4th of July dessert to make! All you need to do is bake the pie crust, mix cool-whip and cream cheese together for the “frosting” and then add fruit on top.

For the top, you can write a patriotic message of your choice, or make a decorative pattern. Let your voice and love for America be heard on the 4th of July dessert table.

How do you make pie crust with sugar cookie dough?

This dessert pie is so easy because we’re using refrigerated cookie dough to turn into the pie crust.

Simply remove the cookie dough from packaging and roll out on a floured surface. Once it reaches the size of the baking dish you’re using, gently pick up and place into the dish.

Tip: Roll out the cookie dough immediately after you remove it from the refrigerator. If you let it sit, it will become soft and more likely to fall apart when rolling out.

How to Make 4th of July Pie

Ingredients:

All you need is:

1. Sugar Cookie Dough
2. Cool-Whip
3. Cream Cheese
4. Fresh Fruit

Roll out cookie dough and place into a 9×13 baking dish.

Bake in the oven until dough comes golden brown. Allow to cool completely (this is important so it doesn’t melt the “frosting” below).

In a large bowl, mix together cool-whip and cream cheese using a hand mixer until fluffy, this usually takes 2-3 minutes.

Spread cool-whip/cream cheese mixture on top of the crust, using a spatula to even out.

Using chopped up strawberries and whole blueberries make a USA flag on top, or a political message about your dislike for Ted Cruz, or another message of your choice.

Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. This can be made a day in advance to make your holiday planning easier.

Can I use a pie pan?

Sure, you can use a circular pie baking dish if you prefer.
