Spread 2 rolls of refrigerated sugar cookie dough into a 16-inch pizza pan. Bake for approximately 16-18 minutes until the cookie crust is slightly browned. Let cool completely.
Spread cheesecake filling over the prepared crust.
Using a table knife, lightly draw the beach ball shape into the top of the cheesecake filling to use as a guide when you are arranging the fruit.
Prepare the fruit. Cut the strawberries into quarters. Dice the peaches and pineapples. Peel and dice the kiwis. Cut the bananas into half-moons then toss in lemon juice to prevent browning.
Arrange chopped strawberries into the center circle of the beach ball so that the red skin of the strawberries is facing up. Arrange the other fruit into the sections of the beach ball, making sure to cover the entire surface area of each section is fully covered. Use the photos as a guide for the fruit color placement. Pile the fruit up as needed to make sure the filling is completely covered.
Refrigerate overnight or until ready to serve.
