03 - Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract until fully combined.
04 - In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry mixture to creamed ingredients, blending until just incorporated.
05 - Press the dough evenly onto the prepared pan, forming a round base approximately 1/2 inch thick.
06 - Distribute approximately 2 cups of assorted toppings evenly over the surface, gently pressing them into the dough.
07 - Bake on the center rack for 16 to 18 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is just set.
08 - Allow cookie pizza to cool on the pan for 10 minutes. Slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
