dojemi's Note:

Tremendous! This was pleasing to the whole family and really fun to prepare! Once I laid out the cookie dough slices, I used my hands to pinch the seals and flatten the dough, which worked really nicely in making a gorgeous, even crust for the fruit pizza. I will definitely be making this again! Thanks a bunch!

Love this! It's very easy to make and everyone always eats it up. The only sad part is I never get any leftovers!

Quick, simple, and oh soooo delicious! I've made this several times over the past 6 months - couldn't believe I hadn't already reviewed it. Better late than never, right? MAKE THIS! =)
