Things You'll Need
1 batch sugar cookie dough
2 cups (16 ounces)
cream cheese frosting
2 1/4 cups apple pie filling
1/3 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1/2 cup caramel sauce, plus more as needed

Tip
Feel free to use homemade or store-bought cookie dough.
Step 1
Preheat the oven according to the sugar cookie recipe's directions. Meanwhile, press the dough onto a nonstick pizza pan, spreading it into an even layer.

Tip
To make this step easier, break up the dough into large chunks and then flatten each piece with a floured rolling pin. Add the pieces to the pizza pan and then press them together with your fingers.
Step 2
Bake until the edges are golden brown and the center starts turning gold. The exact timing will depend on your recipe, so be sure to keep a close watch on the cookie.
Let it cool for about 1 hour.

Step 3
In a bowl, combine the cream cheese frosting and 1/4 cup caramel sauce. Taste it and add more caramel sauce if you'd like.

Step 4
Spread the frosting onto the cooled cookie.

Step 5
Top with apple pie filling and chopped walnuts.

Step 6
Drizzle caramel sauce on top and then slice with a pizza cutter. Enjoy with vanilla ice cream or as is!
