This recipe is a fun Halloween variation on the good old tried and true pepperoni pizza.

Ingredients

6 Rhodes Texas Rolls or 9 Rhodes Yeast Dinner Rolls, thawed but still cold
3/4 cup pizza sauce
pepperoni
mozzarella cheese cut into long skinny strips
3- 4 large black olives
1/2 Cup shredded mozzarella, put under pepperoni

Instructions

Spray counter lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Combine rolls and roll into a 12-inch circle. Place on sprayed 12-inch pizza pan and poke with a fork several times to prevent bubbles from forming.

Bake at 400°F 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

Spread crust with pizza sauce and top with shredded mozzarella. Lay pepperoni close together over cheese. Put back in oven until pepperoni is slightly crispy. Remove from oven and lay long strips of cheese in a spoke and then a wheel design to form spider web over pepperoni. Return to oven again just long enough to melt the cheese slightly.

To form the spider, cut a slight piece off the side of 1 large olive and use larger piece to form the body. Place in desired spot on the pizza.

Cut the rounded end without the large hole off of another olive and place it next to the body for the head. Cut the last one or two olives into 8 long skinny strips and place 4 of them on each side of the spider for legs.
