Ingredients

  • prepared pizza dough can be homemade or store bought
  • 1 tomato sauce
  • ¾ cup shredded mozzarella
  • ½ cup sliced white mushrooms
  • 8 oz ball of fresh mozzarella
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion 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!
