Fantastic recipe! I put only strawberries on top because I am picky about fruit and I doubled the recipe and baked it in a jelly roll pan. I also made the topping with cream cheese and marshmellow creme, a sprinke of vanilla and powdered sugar. I highly recommend this simple and delicious treat. All of my husbands freind's were raving about this at his UFC party tonight.

Oh my. This is perfect for making the night before and taking to a pool party. It transports easily and is so pretty. Plus, it keeps well too. Loved it!

What a fun and crowd pleasing recipe. My children LOVE to help make this one. Not only is it fun to look at, it tastes GREAT! You cannot go wrong. There are many versions out there, but this one is our favorite. The orange glaze sauce gives this fruit tart a professional look.

This was a great dessert. I took it to a dinner club I have with my girlfriends once a month and they all loved it. I added about a cup of powdered sugar to the cream cheese/Cool Whip mixture to sweeten it up. I also bought the break and bake sugar cookies as those were easier to spread than the full roll. I only used about 3/4 of the cream cheese mixture and I probably could have gotten away with only using 1/2 of it because it was still pretty thick. I also only used about 1/4 of the sauce drizzled across the top because the recipe makes quite a bit. But overall, it was very easy to make and was a huge hit with everyone. A great summer recipe!

A lot of the reviews say that they alter the cream cheese frosting, but don't if you put the orange sauce on top-it would be tooooo sweet. This is a great treat!

Nothing but compliments I brought it to my in-laws house for a dessert on Easter. They loved it, it didn't last long at all. I did as others suggested and added vanilla and powdered sugar to the cool whip/cream cheese mixture. Looked great and tasted wonderful

The mixture of the Cool Whip and cream cheese was a little bland, so I added about 3/4C of sifted powdered sugar. This made the sauce a little thicker, and tasted sweeter. Great recipe!

I gave this 4 stars because i thought the crust was dry and not all that great, but the cream cheese topping is fantastic. So the second, and third and fourth :) time I made this I got tons of people asking for the recipe, and here is what I did differantly. For the sugar cookie crust I used the recipe on this site called " the best rolled sugar cookies" (they really are the best bytheway). That made a nice chewy cookie crust, then instead of using cool whip, I tried it with dream whip. WOW! Soooo good. Everyone should try it this way. I promise lots of compliments.

This fruit pizza is unbelievable. It is easy and the presentation is beautiful. I made this twice this summer for family gatherings and everyone loved it. I made exactly how the recipe says and it was perfect. I used strawberries,kiwi,mandarin oranges, and blueberries.

Wonderful recipe! I made it much easier for myself by a couple of changes. I let the cookie dough soften while I prepared the fruit. I didn't bother slicing the cookie dough, I simply pressed it down evenly in a pizza pan. After the cookie crust was baked and cooled, I added the cream cheese mixture and then arranged my fresh fruit on top. I didn't bother with making the glaze although I'm sure it's delicious. I simply melted some apple jelly in the microwave and after cooling it a bit, I brushed in on the fruit. It makes all the fruit shinny and pretty. I packed it in a pizza box and took it to the BBQ and it was (as always) a hit. Thanks Kay for the great recipe!

Very tasty and very easy to put together. I took the suggestion of another user and added vanilla and powdered sugar to the cream cheese mixture; it turned out great. I did not make the glaze this time but I probably will try it eventually.

This was excellent! I did not have to make modifications as far as ingredients go, but I did learn a few things: I used a springform pan to bake this....I would suggest halving the recipe if you are going to do this. I had way too much fruit and cool whip mixture leftover (which made for a really good fruit salad!). With the springform, there was way too much cookie crust which almost over powered the fruit. Overall, this was wonderful! I would up the prep time, though! It took close to an hour to prepare! GREAT recipe, thanks!

Excellent recipe. I only made one change based on other reviews. I used 8oz cream cheese and 7 oz of marshmallow fluff for the topping....it was amazing. I baked the cookie on a pizza stone until it was golden brown all over (about 20 minutes). I topped it with the icing and cooled in the fridge until 2 hours before the party. I then topped with fruit and the orange drizzle and cooled for an additional 2 hours. Next time, I would make this the night before and cool it in the fridge, as it was much better the next day. The cookie got very moist and the flavors blended well. I would also use more strawberries and other "firm" fruit such as grapes, blue berries etc.. and stay away from things such as bananas and canned oranges. Great recipe.....thanks!

This dessert is just the best! It was very easy and so impressive. I will be making this a lot. The picture I posted is one I submitted before adding the glaze. As you can see, I used strawberries (halved), sliced kiwi, well drained canned mandrin orange slices, and sliced banana that I dipped in lemon juice. I also added about 1/2 cup powdered sugar to the cream cheese and whipped topping mixture. Everyone was sooo impressed....said it looked like it came from a bakery. Oh, by the way I took another reviewer's advice and doubled the glaze.....it's really NOT necessary. I had way too much. The original glaze recipe works just fine.

This was an easy and tasty dessert! I did use one jar of Marshmellow cream in replace of the whip cream and thought that was a much better way to go. I also did it in a 9 x 9 square baking dish which used less fruit but had a nice think crust!! The glaze was awesome!! Very yummy stuff!!
