I make a fruit pizza with a sugar cookie as the "crust" and make the dough and just roll it or pat it out on a round pan. I have a pizza stone I use but have used a metal pizza pan and even a large oven safe frying pan in a pinch. I bake mine at 325 for about 18-22 minutes.

I did a chocolate chip one on a pizza pan, I patted out the dough close to the edges. I also noted that it tended to be thicker in the center while I was patting it out, so I was able to catch it in time and thin out the center a bit so it was more even throughout, making sure my edges were thick. I also baked at 325.

I use my cake pans for large cookies. I put a piece of parchment in the bottom so I don't have to worry about it sticking anywhere and bake until done.

Haven't done a sugar cookie this way, but have done chocolate chip quite a few times.

Could also use a pizza pan if you have one (i don't though, i have more variety in cake pans)

Like missmikey, i make a fruit pizza with sugar cookie dough. I lay parchment paper on my pizza pan and place clumps of dough randomly around the pan then pat them together with my fingertips (use gloves.) I stop about 1/4" short of the edge and actually leave the edge just a tad thicker --no terribly thicker, but slightly more raised than the rest of the cookie. I'll try to attach a picture, but I'm not really good at it for some reason, so if it does not work and you want to see it, email me and I'll attach it that way.

They were in charge of the bread set out on the table, the flour for the grain offerings, the unleavened wafers, the baking and the mixing, and all measurements of quantity and size.

Well, at least it attached! Not sure why it attached twice though. icon_redface.gif

I just use my regular cookie recipes since they are already "approved" by customers and family.

When I'm throwing a fruit pizza together for family on a "spur of the moment" type thing, I don't hesitate to use Pillsbury Sugar Cookie dough one finds in the dairy section of the chilled foods. When I'm making it for someone other than family, I use the No Fail Sugar Cookie Recipe found here on CC.

When I make a large chocolate chip cookie, I actually have found the recipe that Wilton includes on their large cookie pans to be very well adapted to this particular style of large cookie.

HTH!

Win- thanks for posting that picture.. man that looks sooo delicous!! It gives me some ideas too (since she doesn't wany any frosting on it - I wonder if she'll go for the cream cheese topping). About that No Fail Sugar Cookie recipe... is the cookie soft and chewy?? I'm nervous about making this because I'm afraid it will turn into a big ole hockey puck! haha

While i hate doing trial runs, maybe this would be good for you to try the NFSC in the pan and see if it works for you? Let us know how you do, i'd love to hear about it.icon_smile.gif

I don't like doing trial runs either.. but since this is a cookie and not a cake... it won't take much time or effort to bake... plus it won't take long to eat! icon_smile.gif
