Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Roll out the sugar cookie dough onto a greased or parchment-lined 12-inch pizza pan, pressing evenly to cover the surface.
Bake the cookie crust in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled cookie crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Prepare the fresh fruit: slice the strawberries and kiwi, and pat dry any fruit with excess moisture using a paper towel.
Arrange the strawberries, blueberries, kiwi slices, and mandarin orange segments in a decorative pattern over the cream cheese layer.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, mix the apricot preserves and water. Microwave for 15-20 seconds, then stir until smooth.
Using a pastry brush, gently glaze the fruit with the apricot mixture to give it a shiny finish and to help preserve freshness.
Chill the fruit pizza in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
