Fun and Easy Spiderweb Pizza Recipe

This Spiderweb Pizza features a classic pizza base topped with tomato sauce, cheese, and pepperoni arranged to create a spooky spiderweb effect. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

1 pre-made pizza dough or crust
1 cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
1/4 cup black olives, sliced
1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) according to the pizza dough instructions.
Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.
Add Sauce and Cheese: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Create the Spiderweb: Arrange the sliced pepperoni in a circular pattern on the pizza. Use the softened cream cheese mixed with milk to pipe a spiderweb design over the cheese and pepperoni. Start from the center and work your way outwards, creating concentric circles and connecting lines.
Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Add Olives: Once out of the oven, place the sliced black olives on the pizza to resemble spiders. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
Serve: Slice the pizza and serve hot for a spooky Halloween treat.
