I’m bringing you summer in cookie form! If each season had a designated cookie these Sugar Cookie Fruit Tarts would be the cookie of summer. I mean, look at all that gorgeous fresh fruit! Plus, these beauties are rocking the patriotic colors of red, white and blue, which makes them perfect for Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, or (let’s be real) just about any summer occasion.

Sugar Cookie Fruit Tart
- Homemade Sugar Cookies
- Cream Cheese Frosting
- Fresh fruit
I used a combination of berries and cherries for this recipe, but you can use any fresh fruit you like. These would be extra pretty with a mixture of colors (maybe berries, kiwi, and mandarins oranges)?
If you’re looking for a shortcut you can absolutely swap out the homemade sugar cookies for store bought sugar cookie dough. Just make sure the cookies are large enough to hold the fruit; mine were a little over 3 inches across.
Also, if you are far more patient and talented than I, you could probably use the fruit to make a fun design (flags! stars!) that would make these even more festive for the 4th of July. I’ve seen people cut out strawberries into the shape of a star which would be so pretty on these. If you try it shoot me a photo. I’d love to see how creative you get.
Get ready to fall in love with these tasty Sugar Cookie Fruit Tarts. Make them now, make them often, just make them. Summer won’t last forever.
