Just made this recipe for 4th of July cookout. I doubled the recipe and put it in a jelly roll style baking pan. For the fruit, I used blueberries and strawberries and made a patriotic flag design. I wish I could post a pic of it because it turned out great. It looked so pretty that it looked like it came out of a magazine. I did NOT do the glaze. It was perfect without it.

I made it last week, and it went down so well, and fast I can't even describe, even my mom loved it so much, Happy Mother's Day, I have to make two just so that there will be enough for the 12 people, based on last week 6 people ate the whole thing!

I would definitely make it again. I made a regular chocolate chip cookie dough but I skipped the baking powder so that it does not rise.

This was very good but think the nexttime I would make a pie crust instead of the sugar cookie.I used Bing cherries instead of grapes.It was all eaten and everyone liked it.

I really liked the crust and filling. I preferred to use blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and kiwi. I thought about leaving off the orange sauce, but was very happy I decided to add it.

We love this recipe. We especially like the frosting layer. It is different than most. It is a great treat for either family or church.

I did not make this (yet) BUT have a suggestion for this recipe or any others: when stating the no. of cals. per serving and the recipe feeds 16-20...the calorie amt. per serving should tell if it's based on 16 or 20 servings.
