Ingredients
  

Mini Pizza Crusts
  • 6 pieces Mini Pizza Crusts store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup Pizza Sauce
  • 2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Shredded Provolone Cheese for the web
  • 6 pieces Black Olives pitted
Optional Toppings
  • Pepperoni, cooked sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers optional

Equipment

  • oven
  • Microwave
  • Ziplock Bag

Method
 

  1. Preheat: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Sauce It Up: Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce evenly over each mini pizza crust.
  3. Cheese Please: Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce, covering the entire crust.
  4. Create the Web: Place the provolone cheese in a small ziplock bag. Microwave for 10 second intervals until melted and squeeze out of the bag in a spiral shape to create a spider web design.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  6. Make the Spiders: While the pizzas are baking, prepare the olive spiders. Cut each olive in half lengthwise. Use one half as the body and slice the other half into thin strips for the legs (3-4 legs per side).
  7. Assemble: Carefully arrange the olive spider on top of the baked pizza. Let slightly cool and serve your spooky snack!

Notes

Substitutions: For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free pizza crusts. For a vegan option, use vegan cheese and omit any meat toppings.
Pro Tips & Variations:
  • For a crispier crust, pre-bake the crusts for a few minutes before adding the toppings.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizzas with too many toppings; keep it simple for best results.
  • Get creative with the cheese! Use different types like cheddar or Monterey Jack to add flavor and visual appeal.
Variations:
  • Spicy Spider Web Pizza: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the pizza sauce for a spicy kick.
  • Halloween Dinner Ideas: Use a larger sized ready made pizza base.
Serving Suggestions: Serve with a fresh green salad with vinaigrette, roasted vegetables like broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, or a refreshing fruit salad for contrast.
Storage: Store leftover pizzas in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheating: Reheat in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes or microwave (crust may get soggy).
FAQ: Can be made ahead and baked before serving. Customize toppings as desired. Adapt for allergies by using gluten-free crusts and dairy-free cheese.
