Paradise Dessert Pizza

I've made this dessert with fresh pineapple and added strawberries and blueberries. Very good, very light-tasting dessert.

Ingredients:

1 package (18 ounces) refrigerated sugar cookie dough

1 container (8 ounces) vanilla, strawberry or banana low-fat yogurt

1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple in juice, well drained

1/4 cup flaked coconut (optional)

2 kiwis, peeled and sliced

1/2 cup red grapes, cut in half

1 can (11 ounces) mandarin orange segments, well drained

2 tablespoons whole, unblanched almonds, chopped

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Form dough into a ball and place in center of Classic Round Stone. Roll dough into a 12-inch circle, about 1/4-inch thick. Bake 16-18 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 10 minutes. Carefully loosen cookie from Baking Stone; cool completely.

2. Combine yogurt, pineapple and coconut; spread mixture evenly over top of cookie. Slice kiwis and cut grapes in half using Paring Knife. Arrange mandarin oranges, kiwi slices and grapes in a circle over yogurt mixture.

3. Chop almonds with Food Chopper; sprinkle over fruit. Slice and serve.
