Answers:
Throw in some M&M's-they have mini ones for baking by the chocolate chips, or get colorful sprinkles-they are not just for the top-mix them into the dough. How about some toffee chips? Take a candy bar-any kind- and chop it up into tiny pices and add it to the mix. If you like mint, take some starlight mints, put into a baggie and smash them with a hammer, add to the dough.
Of course, whatever you add, save some for sprinkiling on top!
Fruit Pizza
Ingredients
1 (18-ounce) package refrigerated cookie dough
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or other flavoring (almond, orange, or lemon)
Fresh blueberries, banana slices, mandarin orange sections, seedless grapes, strawberry halves, kiwifruit (or any other fruit you want), well drained
1/2 cup orange, peach, or apricot preserves
1 tablespoon water
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line an ungreased 14-inch pizza pan with cookie dough cut in 1/8-inch slices, overlapping slightly. Bake 12 minutes or until light brown; remove from oven and cool on a wire rack.
In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract or other flavoring; spread over cookie crust. Arrange fruit over cream cheese layer in any design you want (use your imagination).
In a small saucepan over very low heat, make a glaze by heating preserves and water. Brush glaze over fruit, making sure to cover the fruit that will turn dark. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Note: This does not keep well, so plan on using it up. You may also use your own sugar cookie recipe in place of the refrigerated dough.

Chocolate chips, cinnamon, butterscotch chips, peppermint chips, peanut butter chips, white chocolate chips
after you have the dough in the cookie shape, just put a big hershey's kiss in the middle. YUMMY
Take some Chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, peppermint chips, peanut butter chips, white chocolate chips , and melt them and just drizzle it over the cooled cookie. Pretty besides being yummy.
put m&m's in cookies let cool an a BIG scoop of ice cream inbetween two cookies then roll in sprinkles or chocolate chips or your favorite crushed cookie or candy bar. Or just add your favorite crushed candy bar to the cookie dough.
I like to cut out the sugar cookies then add a spoonful of raisin or date filling,then put another cookie on top and seal the edges.Bake as usual.Recipes can be found online and these filled cookies are the BEST!!
For something simple I have always added some lemon, orange, or lime zest.

dip them in all those little trimettes available in the baking section of the grocery store. The same ones that you use for cupcakes. To get them to stick better use a pastry brush with a little oil on it to paint the cookies then dip the cookies in the trimettes.
