Pizza Skulls

• servings: 3 servings
• total time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

1 (13.8-oz.) can pizza crust dough

4 1/2 ounces low moisture part skim mozzarella

3/4 cup pizza sauce or Marinara sauce

6 tablespoons pepperoni

1 1/2 ounces Parmesan cheese

1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

Directions

Gather all ingredients.

Preheat oven to 400℉. Working on a clean surface, roll out dough to a 15- x 10-inch rectangle. Cut dough into 6 (5- x 5-inch) squares.

Working with one piece of dough at a time, lay one square of dough in one cavity of a nonstick 6-cavity skull-shaped cakelet pan.

Fill the dough by layering 1 tablespoon mozzarella, 1 tablespoon pizza sauce, 1 tablespoon pepperoni, 1 tablespoon mozzarella, 1 tablespoon pizza sauce, 1 tablespoon mozzarella, 1 tablespoon parmesan, and 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning in the center of the dough square.

Fold sides of dough together and pinch tightly to seal, trimming and discarding any excess dough if necessary.

Repeat filling and sealing process with remaining dough squares and remaining cheese, pizza sauce, pepperoni, and Italian seasoning.

Bake in preheated oven until baked through and lightly golden, 16 to 18 minutes.

Carefully remove baked skulls from pan and transfer to a serving plate. Let cool 5 minutes before serving with additional pizza sauce for dipping, if desired. Recipe developed by Nicole Hopper
