Fruit Bars

I was served these at a bridal shower years ago and vowed to never make "regular" fruit pizza again!

1-20oz. pack refrigerated sugar cookie dough
8oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 C. powdered sugar
1/2 C. sugar
1/2 C. orange juice
1/4 C. water
1/4 C. lemon juice
2 T. cornstarch
Variety of fresh fruit

Spread sugar cookie dough into baking dish.
Bake @ 350* according to package.

Mix cream cheese and powdered sugar together.
When cookie dough has cooled, spread cream cheese mixture over top.
Top with fruit; I always use strawberries, blackberries, kiwi fruit, raspberries, green grapes, and blueberries.

Mix sugar, orange and lemon juices, water, and cornstarch in small saucepan.
Cook over medium until thick and clear, stirring constantly.
Let cool slightly, pour over fruit layer.

Serve chilled.
