Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roll out the sugar cookie dough into a large, even circle about 12 inches in diameter and place it on a pizza pan or a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake the cookie dough for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Let it cool completely on the pan.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
Once the cookie crust is cool, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges to mimic a pizza crust.
Arrange the sliced fruits to resemble a traditional pizza: use the strawberries as 'pepperoni,' kiwi slices as 'green peppers,' blueberries as 'olives,' and pineapple chunks as 'pineapple toppings.'
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the apricot jam and water. Microwave for 10-15 seconds until just warmed, then stir to create a thin glaze.
Brush the warm apricot glaze lightly over the fruits to give them a glossy finish and prevent browning.
Refrigerate the fruit pizza for at least 20 minutes to allow it to set before slicing and serving.
Slice into wedges and enjoy this fun dessert that looks just like a savory pizza!
