Prep: 30 minutes.

Bake: 10 minutes + cooling

 

1 tube (18 ounces) refrigerated sugar cookie dough

2 packages (one 8 ounces, one 3 ounces) cream cheese, softened

3/4 cup confectioners' sugar

4-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

1/2 cup fresh blueberries

2 cups quartered fresh strawberries

Press cookie dough into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan.
Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a
wire rack.

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and lemon juice until
smooth. Set aside 1/4 cup. Spread remaining cream cheese mixture
over crust. Decorate with blueberries and strawberries to resemble a
flag.

Cut a small hole in a corner of a pastry or plastic bag. Insert star
tip #16. Fill with reserved cream cheese mixture. Beginning in one
corner, pipe stars in the spaces between the blueberries. Yield:
12-15 servings.

Editor's Note: 2 cups of any sugar cookie dough can be substituted for the refrigerated dough.
