prepared pizza doughcan be homemade or store bought
1tomato sauce
¾cupshredded mozzarella
½cupsliced white mushrooms
8ozball of fresh mozzarella
2tspItalian seasoning
1tspsalt
2tspgarlic powder
1tsponion powder
Fresh basil (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450° F.
In a small saucepan, combine tomato sauce, salt, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and garlic powder. Stir, then heat on low for 5 minutes.
Once the sauce is made, take your dough ball and stretch it out to a 14x14-inch circle on a pizza stone.
Spoon the sauce onto the center of the pizza, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edge for the crust. (I used about ½ cup of sauce, but adjust to your liking)
To create the spiderweb cheese, make a line of cheese down the center of the pizza.
Repeat in the other direction (you will see four quadrants). Make a line of cheese down the center of each quadrant; you will be left with 8 quadrants.
Now, do a line of cheese going across each quadrant to create the spiderweb effect.
Wash your mushroom slices, then take a paring knife and cut small lines at the bottom of each slice, and poke two holes in the center of each slice. This will make the mushroom look like a skull.
Place them on your pizza.
Bake for 10 minutes at 450° F.
While the pizza is baking, slice your mozzarella ball and cut out ghost shapes using a small ghost cutter.
After the 10 minutes are up, carefully remove the pizza from the oven then arrange your ghosts onto the pizza. Bake for an additional 2 minutes.
Garnish with fresh basil and black sprinkles for the ghost eyeballs and mouth. Enjoy!
