Ingredients
- 14 oz refrigerated pizza crust 1 package (I used Pillsbury), or make homemade pizza dough
- 1 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup black olives pitted recommended
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Set aside a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Open the pizza dough and unroll onto a work surface.
- For Mini Pizzas: Using a 4-5" circular cookie cutter or mug, cut out 6-8 circles of dough and place on prepare baking sheet. For a Full-size Pizza: Leave the entire dough as one piece.
- Brush the dough with marinara sauce to cover, leaving 1/4-inch around the edges uncovered. Then sprinkle cheese on top.
- Slice 3-4 olives lengthwise into halves to make the spider bodies. Then slice 3-4 more halves widthwise to make legs. Finally, cut several olive tips to make heads.
- Arrange the spiders on top of the pizzas. Bake for 8-10 minutes until cheese is bubbly and serve warm.

Notes
- Can I make them ahead of time? A spider pizza is best freshly made, but can be made up to two days in advance and reheated in either the microwave or oven.
