Star-Spangled Fruit Tart With Chocolate Chip Cookie Crust

Celebrate the Red, White and Blueberry with a Star-Spangled Fruit Tart! Quick and easy to make using refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough.

This star-spangled dessert is made in a tart pan which makes a pretty fluted edge and cutting and serving easy with the removal of the outer ring of the tart pan.

I used an 11-inch nonstick tart pan for this star-spangled fruit tart and a 16 oz. package of Pillsbury Ready to Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies, found in the refrigerator section at the grocery store.

Slice your cookie dough and press the cookies together so they cover the bottom of your pan. Bake according to package directions, around 10 – 15 minutes until golden brown.

Allow cookie crust to cool, then spread with a mixture of softened cream cheese and sugar. I scored a star shape in the cream cheese and outlined with blueberries.

Fill in the star with a combination of berries, I used raspberries and strawberries. Refrigerate until ready to serve. We prefer the flavors within 2 – 4 hours while the chocolate chip cookie crust is still firm.
