INGREDIENTS
- Crust
- 1 roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough (or your favorite homemade recipe)
- Optional: 1–2 tbsp flour, for rolling out dough
- Filling
- 1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped topping (or whipped cream)
- Toppings
- ¾ cup Naturipe Blueberries
- 1½ cups Naturipe Strawberries, sliced
- Optional: lemon zest or honey drizzle
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare crust: Press or roll the sugar cookie dough into a rectangle on a greased baking sheet or parchment-lined pan (approx. 9×13 inches). Bake 12–14 minutes or until golden. Let cool completely.
- Make the filling: In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla, mixing well. Fold in whipped topping until creamy and spreadable.
- Assemble the flag:
- Spread the filling evenly over the cooled crust.
- In the top-left corner, create the “stars” field by arranging Naturipe Blueberries in a solid rectangle.
- For the “stripes,” place rows of sliced Naturipe Strawberries across the rest of the cake. Alternate with white space from the filling for the flag look.
- Chill for 30–60 minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy!
