Cheesy Halloween Pizza Skulls

Step 1

Spray the mini skull baking tin with cooking spray.

Step 2

Dust the counter lightly with flour to prevent the dough from sticking. Roll, pat, or stretch the dough out until it is roughly 1/4" thick. Cut the dough into 6 rectangles. Don’t worry if they aren’t perfectly shaped or exactly equal in size.

Step 3

Working with one piece of dough at a time, lay each dough piece into the skull cavity and start filling it with sauce, mozzarella, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and your desired toppings. After adding the toppings, add a little bit of pizza sauce on top before sealing the dough (no more than a tablespoon).

Step 4

Fold the dough over the fillings, pinching the dough together to seal them (like a small pizza pocket). Continue until the 6 pieces have been filled and sealed.

Step 5

Refrigerate the skull pizza tray while you preheat the oven.

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 7

Remove the tray from the refrigerator and bake for 16 to 20 minutes or until lightly golden brown (some pre-made doughs may need more or less time).

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Unmold and serve with marinara sauce and chopped parsley or basil (optional).
