Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

On a lightly floured surface, roll the thawed pie crust into an 11-inch circle. Transfer to a baking sheet or pizza pan and prick the bottom and sides several times with a fork to prevent bubbling. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is a light golden brown, approximately 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely. (20 minutes)

04

Step

In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until light, creamy, and smooth. Spread this mixture evenly over the cooled pie crust. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Arrange the kiwi slices, mandarin oranges, strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries in an artful and decorative pattern on top of the cream cheese layer. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until ready to serve. This allows the flavors to meld and the cream cheese to firm up. (30 minutes)

For a more intense citrus flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of lemon or orange zest to the cream cheese mixture.
Feel free to experiment with other fruits based on seasonal availability and personal preference. Sliced peaches, nectarines, or blackberries would be delightful additions.
If you're short on time, you can use a pre-made graham cracker crust instead of baking your own.
To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, brush it with a thin layer of melted white chocolate after it has cooled and before adding the cream cheese filling. This creates a moisture barrier.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a dusting of powdered sugar for an elegant finishing touch.

    Make sure the cream cheese is really soft, otherwise it will be lumpy.
