Ingredients:
Favorite sugar cookie recipe or store bought sugar cookie dough 
Strawberries--about a half gallon
8 oz (1 package) cream cheese
confectioners sugar
whipped topping or whipped cream

****************
Use a round pizza pan

Either smooth down the dough with hand or use a rolling pin to make cookie dough cover the pizza pan ala pizza dough

-Cook in accordance with cookie dough recipe/instructions. Perform a and b while cookie is in the oven
a. Sweeten cream cheese to desired taste by adding powdered sugar to preferred taste...if unsure start with 1 cup blend in using mixer on medium speed 

b. Hull/remove the green of the strawberries 
cut tops and bottom off strawberries--to be used in 'pizza sauce'. These pieces will be crushed to look like sauce. I used my onion chopper. 
slice strawberries for the 'pepperoni' put aside


1. When giant cookie/'pizza' crust comes out of the oven, spread a thin layer of sweetened cream cheese (scc). Let cookie cool and the sweetened cream cheese harden.

3. I used a cake decorating bag, but this can be done using a ziploc bag or other inventive way to add the sweetened cream cheese. 
Zig-zag the sweetened cream cheese across the strawberry sauce.

My tip--To add sausages (or for a red-white-and blue look)--just toss on some blueberries!
