possible "another" title for this recipe:
"Fruit Cookie Delight," for more than one,
{For more so a Party of 5-10 servings}

I've seen this before, but it sounds just as good this time around.

Thanks.

I learned this recipe from my aunt in Montana. She makes it periodically when we go to visit. My older sister also makes it. It is delicious and very refreshing. I've never heard of using the glaze though. The cream cheese sauce recipe also makes a great dip for fresh fruit. The pizza recipe would be great for just about any occasion.

Sounds good.
