If you believe pizza is worthy of its own food group, this is for you! This Halloween let your pizza play dress up too and make gooey pizza skulls. Coat your skull pan with nonstick spray, portion out your rolled pizza dough, fill each skull with cheese, one tablespoon of marinara sauce and your favorite toppings, like pepperoni. Fold and seal your pizza skulls and bake until golden. Don’t forget to cut open your skull’s mouths to create a terrifying, jaw-dropping (literally) cheese pull effect.
