• Heat over to 350 degrees. Use a nonstick pizza pan, or spray your pizza pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Open the sugar cookie dough, place it in the pizza pan, and start spreading with your hands. You want to spread the dough out into a circle that fits inside the pan. You can smooth it out and patch the areas that you need to with dough – the dough is going to even out when you bake.
• Bake according to the package instructions – approximately 12 – 14 minutes or until the edges are brown. Let cool for at least 20 minutes.
• While the cookie pizza is cooling, make the vanilla frosting.
• Use a knife to spread the frosting out onto the cookie, completely covering the cookie top. They’ll put dots down and then add circles around the dots.
• Place gel dots down immediately, and add circles around the dots. Using a toothpick, drag outward from the center to create the fireworks pattern.

Vanilla Frosting

• Place 2 cups of confectioners’ sugar in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons milk, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract to the sugar. Stir to combine.
• The mixture should be frosting consistency; if it isn’t, add a touch of milk and keep stirring until it reaches desired consistency.
